complex felwood calendar cube with one panel covered in lumium gears
Look: Even though the lumium is dull like an unpolished silver, the dark purple wooden panels forming the cube still contrast strikingly. A glass panel on one face displays the current date while another to its side has several dials that control the gears. Yet another face shows a depicton of the current month.

A simple notation explains the dual date listings:
"The number preceding the / is the current day of the
month (1-40), whereas the number following denotes the
current day of the year (0-399)."

The above is an example, and will vary over time. The current date will be highlighted.

  • TURN: You toy with the dials on the calendar, rotating the Month dial through Akroeg, Ka'len, Lirisa, Shorka, Uthmor, Arhat, Moliko, Skullcleaver, Dolefaren, and Nissa. Then you rotate the Day dial through Kertandu, Hodandu, Evandu, Truffandu, Havrandu, Elandu, Chandu, Glythandu, Faeandu, and Tamsandu. Then, slightly embarrassed to be playing with the device as if it were a toy, you reset it to the proper date.
