The reason I wanted the calendar info (Thanks everybody, BTW), is that I'm
working on a special realm spell for a campaign I'm running. Basically,
IMC, Azrai isn't dead, just stuck in the Shadow World. This is pretty
heavily influenced by Lovecraft, so I wanted there to be petty cultists
meddling with forces they don't understand and all that rot. Here's the
spell, anyway.

Dark Summons Sphere:Necromancy(?)
Regency: 0 Req'd Holding: 1
Gold: 1 GB Character Level: 3
Duration: 5 min/ 1 year.

This spell creates a short lived portal to the Shadow world, through which
comes a dark being to do the priest's bidding. It will remain on the earth
for 1 year, during which it makes every attempt to carry out his command,
and then it fades away.
The spell can only be cast during Emmanier, the month leading up to the Eve
of the Dead. It culminates on the Eve, with the opening of the portal for a
period of about 5 minutes. During this time, the priest must offer a
blooded victim, preferably a regent, to seal the bargain. If he has no
suitable person, the creature takes him instead.
Additionally, this spell can only be performed in one of a few locations
around Cerilia, where ancient stone circles stand. These are found in the
Erebannien, the Giantdowns, Drachenward, and of course, your player's
holdings :)
