Sinthera Calendar

As Tempest orbits a binary star system, it has an interesting calendar and time structure. Months are 24 days long, 14 days on the long side and 9 days on the short side. With two 1/2 day segments of transition where one star either eclipses the other. Days are 24 hours, and years are 2568 days or 107 months. Dates are represented by the following format: YYYY-MMM-DD AGE. The scholar Mythanthar Sinthera originally created the calendar in 582 AoS.   Calendar View

Izar and Mare Transits


How the transits work, imagine you are on the same plane as the stars. They move around each other and as they dance in the sky, one seems to move through the other one, these are considered transits.

Izar Transit

This is when Izar (Small Star) transits in front of Mare (Large Star). Izar is also commonly referred to as the Sun/Son.

Mare Transit

This is when Mare (Large Star) transits in front of Izar (Small Star), eclipsing the star. Mare is also commonly referred to as the Father.
