Sheildmeet is the leap day of the Calendar of Harptos, occurring once every four years between Midsummer and 1 Eleasis. Traditionally the day is used for fairs, bazaars, musical and theatrical performances, and tournaments of skill and magical ability. Nobles usually hold court to hear the petitions of their people and to make or renew trade pacts, alliances, and agreements.
On This Day
- Worshipers of Helm hold the Ceremony of Honor to Helm.
- Priests of Kelemvor tell the Deeds of the Dead to preserve their memory.
- Mielikki's Wild Ride continues.
- Worshipers of Oghma make or renew agreements and contracts.
- Worshipers of Selûne perform the Conjuring of the Second Moon ritual, with simultaneous chanting at all her temples in Omelon. This summons the Shards to assist the earthly clergy.
- Worshipers of Torm celebrate Shieldmeet very seriously as a time of agreements, compacts, and oaths.
