Skanoric Calendar

"Major Work in Progress"

The state calendar of the Kingdom of Rostkamm and the semi-official calendar of its successor provinces such as Greyhallow, the Rostkammyr Calendar or Vannesyr's Calendar has been used to mark the passage of time for just over three thousand years, it's Year 0 having occurred in 2424 P.C (King's Calendar) or 3024 P.C (Lotharian Calendar).

Like most other human calendars, the Rostkammyr Calendar consists of two major periods, V.V.З (V.V.E) which stands for "Vor Vannesyr Eynenyr" or "Before Vannesyr's Unification", which counts backwards from the Year 0 while Н.V.З (N.V.E), standing for "Nakh Vannesyr Eynenyr" or "After Vannesyr's Unification" counts time forward. Each of these main periods is broken into smaller "Seytyr" or "Eras" based around notable events in Rostkammyr History. Notably, unlike most other calendars, the Rostkammyr Calendar still uses runic letters and numbers, with the dates being notated in Rostkammyr Numerals.

The calendar fell out of disuse during the period of Arathi rule in Rostkamm and later after the Rostkammyr Rebellion. Today it is only used for official documents in the Duchy of Greyhallow, the Counties of Rustridge and Kupfmoor; and the dwarven Earldom of Eysental.

The current year in the Rostkammyr Calendar is  ҃ƐЮҺЮ H.V.З in the Calendar's runic alphabet or 3050 N.V.E in the Arathi Alphabet.
