Mundian Astral Bodies:

Sae: The sun. Much like our sun is named Sol. They still call it the sun, though, just like we do with ours.

Han: The greater moon.

Oan: The lesser moon.

The Mundian Year:

Mund has a slightly longer rotation than Earth, and a slightly longer year. The other hand, the months are a little dodgy, but the difference between lunar and solar years resolves itself every other year without any leap year nonsense.

1 day: 25 hours.

1 week: 8 days.

1 year: 368 days.

Days of the Week:

Mundian weeks start on the first workday of the week, and end with the day of worship. Named after ancient Mundian heroes of legend. Except for the obvious one.

Sofsday.

Hornsday.

Soolsday.

Grippensday.

Hoffsday.

Erochsday.

Jesha’s Rest.

Months of the Year:

Months on Mund are a bit peculiar, at least in Tandera. They basically have eleven months of four weeks each, and a special, twelfth, festival month in the fall after harvest that’s only two weeks long.

Beginning at the winter solstice, they are:

1. Sae’s Awakening. Frequently shortened to Awakening.

2. Deep Frost.

3. Jehsha’s Warming.

4. Rain’s Freshening.

5. Farmer’s toil. Frequently shortened to Toil. Planting season.

6. Summer’s Dawn. Sometimes shortened to Sundawn.

7. Torhahm’s Fire. Named for the dark god of Mund. Midsummer is pretty hot in Tandera.

8. Dragon’s Fury. Sometimes called Dragon’s. Yep, just Dragon's.

9. Festival. Once, a grand harvest festival, these days, it’s just another month

10. Autumn’s Waning. Frequently shortened to Waning.

11. Snowfall.

12. Jehsha’s Glory. Frequently shortened to Glory.

Money:

Tandrian cash is pretty much universally accepted, at least so far. The odd foreign coin shows up here and there, but not often enough for me to create multiple systems of currency.

The form here is, Name, followed by abbreviation, followed by colloquial name, followed by approximate value compared to the US Dollar (given I’m an American, and its value is familiar)

Copper Common (CC): Copper washed zinc. Normally shortened to ‘copper’. About the size of a US nickel. ($0.01)

Copper Real (CR): Larger coin, higher copper content. About the size of a US quarter. ($0.10)

Copper Rondel (CRD): Still larger coin, higher copper content. About the size of a newer US half dollar. ($0.50)

Silver Common (SC): Small silver coin. Normally shortened to ‘silver’. about the size of a US dime. ($1.00)

Silver Real (SR): Larger silver coin, about the size of a newer US half dollar. ($2.00)

Silver Rondel (SRD): Still larger silver coin, about the size of an old form US silver dollar. ($5.00)

Gold Common (GC): Small gold coin. Normally shortened to ‘gold’. About the size of a US dime. ($10.00)

Gold Real (GR): Smallish gold coin about the size of a quarter. ($20.00)

Gold Rondel (GRD): Large gold coin about the size of an old form US silver dollar. ($100.00)

So, when somebody comes along and says, "I'll give you two silver for that horse," he's talking commons. You should punch him square in the mouth for making such an insulting offer.

1 SRD = 2.5 SR = 5 SC = 10 CRD =50 CR = 500 CC.

1 GC = 2 SRD = 5 SR =10 SC = 20 CRD = 100 CR = 1000 CC.

1 GR = 2 GC = 4 SRD = 10 SR = 20 SC = 40 CRD = 200 CR = 2000 CC.
