The Phemoan Games

Giblean 21-28 (every four years)

Observed by: Though mostly observed in Aebasa and the nations formerly part of the Great Empire, the games are celebrated on a smaller scale anywhere that Phemos is prominent

The Phemoan Games is a series of sporting events conducted to honor Phemos, the god of sport. Particularly popular in Aebasa and in some of the nations formerly part of the Great Empire, organized competitions include wrestling, horse racing, boxing, foot races, discus throwing and javelin throwing, though regional variations often include sports specific to those regions. Unlike most holy weeks, the Phemoan Games take place only once every four years (a period of time sometimes referred to as a Phemiad). The games conclude with Laurel Day, where the winners of the events are awarded and lavished with gifts.
