Events
- The Grey Wyrm rises from the depths of Lake Kriegvogel to devour several boats and run amok in the town of Silbervas. Although the creature is beaten back into the lake, the disaster leaves Silbervas' citizens with dread over the beast's return. Henceforth, this year will be known as the Year of the Gray Wyrm.[1]
- February: Dr. Rudolph van Richten, Davvyd, Samuel and Dr. Ottelie Farringer battle the fiend Drigor. Only Dr. van Richten survives.[2]
- Van Richten publishes his Guide to Fiends.[3]
- Van Richten stumbles into the clutches of the nameless Amnizu and the nameless Barbazu infesting Chateaufaux. He is captured. However, he manages to join with some adventurers to route the devils from the town.[4][5]
- Sachmet is awoken by the disturbance of her tomb.[6][7] Disappearances and madness plague the workers of the quarries in the Koshka Bluffs after the discovery of ancient tombs. Sir Tristen Hiregaard forbids the removal of treasures and scales back the quarrying. [8]
- The first trial of the Tepestani Inquisition is organised by Wyan of Viktal. Foreigners are accused of consorting with the Fey and what little trade remains pretty much dries up West of Kellee. In Kellee Gerald Ferrier succeeds in maintaining a degree of calm. He seeks the assistance of the Church of the Lawgiver to fight back the superstition of the masses.[9]
- Narana Hiregaard is born. She is the youngest, by over 10 years, of 5 (or more) children (at least 3 girls and at least 2 boys) of Sasha Hiregaard. If Sasha has only 5 children he is not more than 33 and not less than 21 at the time. [10][11][12]
- Lumbering in [[the Dyskov Forest] resumes but tales of the sortvingebute (“black fairies”) and of the Centaur soon enter into circulation. Disappearances are attributed to the former and half-eaten corpses to the latter. [13]
- Othmar tries and fails to have Chezna the Blood-cat silenced for all eternity by band of foreign adventurers. The Vistani outcast and bandit leader replies with a reign of terror. She is, however, driven out of her base in Briarweed Forest and obliged to roam the land.[14]
