The Calendar of Harptos is the calendar used across most of Faerûn, created by the wizard Harptos of Kaalinth. It splits the calendar into 12 months, each made of three tendays, for a total of thirty days. There are also five days that lie outside of a month, for a total of 365 days per year. And yes, the Harptos calendar also allows for leap years.
