Timeline

The following timeline tracks the progression of time for the shared world of the Forgotten Realms. The exploits of the characters adventuring through the various campaign sagas can all be updated and referenced below.

All campaigns that take place in Faerun (or elsewhere on Toril) will generally use the Calendar of Harptos to mark time. Characters experiencing Tales from Ravenloft must also be aware of the Barovian Calendar, which tracks time throughout the demiplane of Ravenloft.

## **Calendar of Harptos**

The continent of Faerun (and possibly other locations on Toril) uses the Calendar of Harptos, named after the long-dead wizard who invented it. Each year of 365 days is divided into twelve months of thirty days each, which roughly correspond to months in the real-world Gregorian calendar. Each month is divided into three "tendays," the Faerunian equivalent of weeks. Five special holidays fall between the months and mark the passage of seasons. A special holiday, called Shieldmeet, is inserted into the calendar after Midsummer every four years, much like the real-world leap year.

## **Dale Reckoning Chronograph**

The passage of years is marked by the Dale Reckoning, abbreviated as DR. This practice was named for the people of the Dalelands whose marking of the years has been the most acknowledged by the civilized races throughout the history of the Realms.

Although the official Forgotten Realms timeline places the current year at 1489 DR, this shared world takes place roughly a century earlier. This allows much of the ancient history of Toril, such as the Days of Thunder and the Crown Wars, to remain intact while keeping the modern age of the Realms free from the string of cataclysms like the Time of Troubles and the Spellplague which greatly altered the balance of the world. Not all events have been rewound, however. For example, Lord Dagult Neverember rules his home of Neverwinter, as in official canon. Unlike official canon, Neverwinter has not been buried by the eruption of Mount Hotenow and is still a thriving metropolis. Refer to this wiki for updates and changes to official canon or ask the other Dungeon Masters for clarification if history becomes questionable.

As a reminder, some events may be missing from the Dale Reckoning Chronograph and appear instead on the Barovian Calendar.
