TTOA Calendar, Birth symbols, etc:

In the TTOA calendar, there are 6 months -
The Calendar is based on the calendar invented by the ancient elves 4200 years ago.

Octrabon - 61 days.
Cotrabon - 61 days.
Serabon - 60 days.
Ventrabon - 61 days.
Entrabon - 61 days.
Ferdrebon - 61 days. (60 on Leap Years)

Depending on what month you are born in, you get a symbol ---

Octrabon - Creator
Oculas - An octagon. Oculas' are brilliant thinkers, and have very creative minds. They get along well with Ferdrabas.

Contrabon - Craftsman
Controsi - A gear. Controsi's are excellent engineers and craftsmen. They get along well with Entrabi.

Serabon - Adventure
Sericius - A fox. Sericius' are very adventurous and outgoing people. They get along well with Ventibisius'.

Ventrabon - Caretaker
Ventibisius - A tree. Ventibisius' are one with nature and a natural way. They are the caretakers of the world. They get along well with Sericius'.

Entrabon - Emotional
Entrab - A heart. Entrabi are highly emotional people. They get along well with Controsi's.

Ferdrebon - Brilliant politician.
Ferdraba - A triangle. Ferdrabas are brilliant political minds. Ferdrabas make us up the leaders, and politicians of the world. They get along well with Oculas'.

============================================

Though the Silver Triangle Shipping League doesn't have much of a role in TTOA, one of the main characters fathers worked for this league, so I will post some background info on them:
1380 (62 years before the time of TTOA) was when the Silver Triangle Shipping League was started.
They started off as a small shipping league based in Tillera, and gradually grew to have ports in many other locations and on several of the other continents including Kadorin (I'll post about more of the continents eventually)
The League was started by Kelush Kaladren. He was born in Ferdrebon, and since his birth symbol was a triangle. He adopted that as the symbol of the league.
Kelush Kaladren, became a very wealth man extremely fast. His shipping league soon stretch up and down the Dragon Sea, and eventually streched to other continents.
The Silver Triangle became the largest shipping league in all of Arasil, and is still one of the largest to this date. Their main headquarters are in Tillera and Kaerin (Located on the continent of Kadorin which I will post most info on later).
In 1426, Kelush passed away, and his son Drundel took over the business. Business slipped off a bit after that, and the League lost some of their power (As Drundel wasn't quite as brilliant and charismatic as his father), but the league is still the 3rd largest shipping company in Arasil.

Heres a quick drawing of the Silver Triangle symbol. This will probably be used with about a 25% scale for Silver Triangle signs and ships in TTOA. :ggani:

Of course, an entirely new world.

So far I have:
Some of the basics of how this world began.
The calendar.
Recent timeline (very WIP though)
A few organizations
Some legendary heroes
Gods/Godesses (Most of the human/elf/dwarven/halfling/gnome gods and a few others done, but still very WIP)
A few continents (gotta organize and rename a few things)

Don't compare to Tolkien!
Maybe Ian should write few books, create few races... :ggani:
