Updated Golarion Calendar (Excel)


Lost Omens Campaign Setting General Discussion


2 people marked this as a favorite.

Here's my perpetual calendar (works from 1 A.R. onwards) updated for the new World Guide:

CalendarAR.zip

Included in the zip file is the moon font needed to display the moon phases correctly. You need to install or copy the file into the Windows fonts directory if you don't already have it. To generate the calendar for a particular year, just type the year number into the yellow box on the first page.

Holidays mentioned in the World Guide, equinoxes, and new and full moons are all marked on the calendar. It syncs with our Gregorian calendar this year (4711 AR or 2011 AD), but will get out of sync following the first Gregorian leap year that's not also a Golarion leap year going forwards (4716 AR and after) or backwards (Calistril 4708 AR and before). Moon phases are close enough to our real world this year, but as I'm only using very simplistic calculations, don't expect them to remain in sync with our real world many years into the future or past.

Enjoy!


Nice work. Thanks.

Which, in my mind, begs the question: what's the point of having Golarion's calendar match up with the Gregorian calendar in every other way if it's due to fall out of sync in short order due to a meaningless difference in how leap years are calculated?


Looks great so why doesnt each week have a phase of the moon?

I could add that, I suppose, but after years of playing, I've found that there're only 2 important phases of the moon - new and full. You can infer what phase the moon is in each week by whether the week comes after a new/full moon.


Thank you for the calendar Vivriel. Your hard work shows, and this will be a great aid in my new campaign.
