Zodiac
A touchy subject amongst the citizenry of Battal, there are actually three different Zodiacs used for fortune-telling in the world.
The Zodiac used by most humans, as well as Dwarves, Quilp, and later Zonardians after the concept was introduced to them. This Zodiac changes depending on what stars shine in the night sky. All of the signs are constillations.
In more recent times, also called the "Botanical Zodiac". It has 13 signs which vary depending on what flowers or plants are in bloom when the person is born. Used by most of the tribes of Elves. Also later adopted by the Centaur, Tribbits, and K'thians. The 13 signs of the Elvish Zodiac are all based on fairly powerful Elemanifestations.
A 8-phase yearly successional Zodiac that changes with every Wangese New Year. Most of the signs of the Wangese Zodiac are simply normal creatures the Wangese thought were cute. Not celebrated outside of the Wang Kingdom because it implies everyone born in the same year should have the same sign and thus the same destiny, which would be rather nonsensical to the other races.
