"They wear a curious mask: not quite a fox, not entirely a wolf. All white."
December is the elusive leader of the Calendar Council. Their origins and place on the Great Chain are unknown, and their lupine mask may be their actual face.
December knows a great deal about the Judgements.[1] A book they authored, kept in the Agendums of Ascent, is a very old text on astronomy, which also discusses the motivations of the stars as if December knows them personally.[2]
The Curt Relicker was a member of the Calendar Council who fell in love with December. December did not return his feelings, and had him expelled from the Council. While disinterested in romance, December speaks to their followers warmly and seems to genuinely care for the rest of the Council.[3]
According to the Bishop of St Fiacre's, December is the sibling of the current Boatman, and they attained their current nonhuman form by breaking the Great Chain.[4]
In the Sunless Skies timeline, as of 1905, December has left the Neath with January and February. The three revolutionaries reside in Pan in Eleutheria.[5]

- ↑ Converse with a stranger, Fallen London "They discuss things you know - the Chain, the Liberation of Night, London's place in it, your own role in preserving the city for that appointed hour. And they discuss things you don't: the Unrest of Hours, the vendettas of the Judgements, December's own origins."
- ↑ The Calendar Code, Fallen London "Here is a chart of conjunctions, and here a timetable for the appearance of comets. The paper is dry, crumbling beneath your fingers. It would not survive being removed from the library. The concluding sections seem more philosophical, correlating the movements of celestial bodies to the affairs of London. [...] the final chapter explains the motivations of stars as if the author knows them personally."
- ↑ Converse with a stranger, Fallen London "They greet you warmly, as a comrade, and discuss the matter of London. They ask how you have found the other months. Has February softened? Not much. Has September gotten into any trouble? Some. Is August too crestfallen that there will not be another Election? Hard to say."
