Caves of Qud uses an idiosyncratic system of measuring time. The base measurement the game uses is referred to as a TimeTick(also referred to as game ticks in this article). Each TimeTick can be generally considered to be an ingame turn at 100 [[quickness]]. | Caves of Qud uses an idiosyncratic system of measuring time.

==Eras== | |||
Years are separated into three separate eras: BR (Before [[Resheph]]) and AR (After [[Resheph]]) and PP. These two are separated by the year that [[Resheph]] resigned as the last Sultan. Like the real life equivalents BCE and CE, years in BR counts backwards, so 60 BR is earlier than 100 BR. | |||
PP is an alternate era name used in {{favilink|Frivolous Lives, Vol. I}}, which denotes the rule before the 6 sultans. Like BR, the years in PP count backwards. The author denotes PP as "prior [to] publication". However, the date of which Frivolous Lives is published is unknown, which makes the relation between PP and BR/AR vague. | |||
==Months== | |||
A month is measure in game as a length of 36,000 game ticks, except for Ut yara Ux, and Kisu Ux, which are 6,000 ticks. One year is 438,000 game ticks, or 310 days. | |||
