Aramis – Complete World Summary Aramis is a diverse planet where Humans, Thaevir, Rovak, Nalari, and Feythar coexist. Its 28-hour day, 560-day year, and 10-month calendar shape every aspect of life. Each month aligns with a lunar phase, and every fifth year ends with five sacred Star Days when trade stops, marriages are celebrated, and treaties are signed. 🏛 Government & Society Aramis is a constitutional monarchy with a High Monarch serving as figurehead and a rotating Council of Clades where each species elects representatives. Factions include the Harmonic Concord (peacekeepers, mostly Thaevir), the Iron League (Rovak guild alliance), the Tideborn Assembly (Nalari interests), and the Desert Accord (Feythar spiritualists). Elections occur during Moonsveil month, every 6 years. 👪 Species & Culture Humans: Adaptive innovators, fastest to change socially. Monogamy most common, inheritance split or primogeniture.
