Orben Calendar

The Orben Calendar is the official tracker of years and dates on Orbis. The current year in the Orben Calendar is 643 a.Fe.

The grouping of years is split into three main categories: Before Aurum (b.Au.): Events which took place before the founding of the Aurum Empire. The higher the number, the farther in the past the event took place. After Aurum (a.Au.): Events which took place after the founding of the Aurum Empire, up to the death of Lady Feldane in 2520 a.Au. After Feldane (a.Fe.): Events which took place after the death of Lady Feldane.

During the time of Lady Feldane's rule over Orbis, it was typical to mark the years after her ascendancy as n.Dw (New Dawn,) however this was much resisted by her detractors which stuck to the old system of recording dates, and was dropped entirely after her death.
