Since I'm working from the Forgotten Realms campaign setting currently, the year is 1372, the year of Wild Magic.

DR 1374, Year of Lightning Storms


Well, actually the novels Unclean and Sacrifice of the Widow take place in 1375 DR (The Year of Risen Elfkin). Cormyr: The Tearing of the Weave takes place at the end of 1374 DR, and the follow up adventure, Shadowdale: The Scouring of the Land, starts in 1375 DR.

Very true, I'm going off the last published adventure, Cormyr. I have all the novels, bought as they're published, but I don't get around to them quite as quickly, and they don't always run chronologically. Conversely, I'll run through the adventures as soon as my group is ready, which means I read through them as soon as I buy them.

Oh, you are absolutely correct. While those two series are in 1375 DR, the Twilight War books of Paul S Kemp are still in 1374 DR, and won't be finished until next year.

And there is no other reason for me keeping track than obsessive tendancies, since I usually "backdate" my campaign a few years so I can use what's going on as "current events." ;)


Yup, it's 1375 DR - The Year of Risen Elfkin. :)

Thanks, guys

I know the Setting has up to 1372 but that was a couple years ago. I thought it was 1374 but had a sneaking feeling it was a little past that.

I'm running my FR campaign in 1375 - I'm using the destruction of Evermeet (IMC o'course) as a catalyst for several elf-related events, such as the return of the Ghost Elves, the raising of a new island kingdom (by one of the characters), and the general re-introduction of elves back into general society.

Fun stuff. :D
