Many unique holidays, festivals and celebrations are held throughout the year and vary by culture and/or calendar.

Hayato Holidays & Festivals

Tennō Tanjōbi

Tennō Tanjōbi (天皇誕生日/Tennō's Birthday) is one of the most important holidays of Yamatai, celebrating the birth of the incumbent tennō. It changes when a new tennō takes the throne. Aside from prayers and well-wishes, it is the one time a year when the grounds of Imperial Palace are open to the general public—which, excluding staff, government officials, high ranking army officers, and state guests, is normally forbidden to all outsiders.

Birthdays of imperial family members – specifically the immediate family of the current tennō; i.e siblings, spouse and children – are celebrated like holidays as well.

Ganjitsu

Ganjitsu (元日) is the term for Teikoku New Year, observed by all countries and dependencies of Hayato culture.

Vampiric Holidays & Festivals

Hollavien

A vampiric religious festival holiday celebrating the entire pantheon. Observed on Opesagyr 31st.

Festival of Iza

A week-long vampiric paganistic religious festival to the Iza, the Vampiric Goddess Animals, Spring, Nature, Flowers, Trees, & Vegetation. It is held during the last full week of Trisca, in the week preceding the last Pafsiday of the month.

A young girl is randomly chosen to represent Iza. The girl is stripped of her clothes, coated with a special oil made from bloodflowers, and adorned with flowers in her hair. The girl spends several days in the branches of a holy tree like a throne. On the final day, she descends from the tree and rides a horse bareback to the temple of Iza to pray to her.

Notes & Trivia

• The vampiric holiday "Hollavien" is a parody of the real-world holiday Halloween.
