| #2keithpNov 01, 2009 7:04:43 | I just found this online calendar tool that answers my question: |

Cool little tool. That does take the guess work out of it. Interesting to see the phase of the Moon in the day my charecter was born. And it goes all the way up to 1600 DR, so its still useful in the current FR 4e timeline. |
| #4Doombringer_of_HoarNov 15, 2009 6:06:37 | Yes it comes in very handy. You can add in Game info, and keep track of important dates, holy days, etc. Very useful, nice find, thanks for posting it KeithP. |
| #5keithpNov 15, 2009 8:04:38 | Your welcome. It's turned out to be very handy in my game. My players are about to have the Bandit Lair encounter from the FRCG on a moonless night. I hope to make it spooky, and am adding a little to the lighting rules. Hopefully, the players will be able to exploit their low-light vision advantage. (Or dark vision in one case.) |
| #6The_SilverswordNov 15, 2009 8:49:26 | Indeed Keith good find! This will come in handy keeping track of events in game. |

The most striking difference would be calendarial, being as that we have weeks, where there's four lunar phases per month, with roughly one a week, while in Faerûn, the tenday system is used, which would mean that it'd be possible for Selûne to go from one phase to another, and then to the next within the same tenday. |
