This is the timeline of events since the First Meteor struck. - NOT a list of things the PCs have done.

  • Day 0 - A meteor strikes the Luna Valley. Earthquakes and a temperature increase ensued, melting the glacier rapidly.
  • After about a week - Various communities around the valley were hit by flash floods and landslides and the survivors gathered what belongings they managed to save and started to make their way towards Tomar's Crossing - the one place that was on the top of a hill and managed to avoid the worst of the devastation. The town of Safeharbour is almost entirely swept away, though enough of the population managed to make their way to higher ground and salvage some of their belongings, living in temporary camps before also starting to make their way towards Tomar's Crossing in drips and drabs.
  • After about 2 weeks - goblinoids and bandits start to prey upon the refugees travelling from wherever they had waited out the worst of the floods before starting their journeys to Tomar's Crossing. Ralekai Gravemore rescues Harlyot Crushade and Horlen Barrypot.
  • After about 3 weeks - a second meteor strikes the valley, further melting what was left of the glacier and causing more devastation and forcing more survivors to consider making the now dangerous journey to Tomar's Crossing. Ralekai Gravemore discovered Fort Frostfell and tasks Horlen to start searching the library, setting Harlyot Crushade to look after him. He intimidates a bunch of goblinoids to start recruiting "volunteers" for his Demonplague cure research. Our plucky heroes (LOL) arrive in Safeharbour the day after the second meteor strike.
  • Day 28 - Cormir, Morthos and Drex first arrive in Tomar's Crossing.
  • Day 30 - Cormir, Morthos and Drex go to Fort Frostfell and kill the wight Gothmog Plaguereaper, the hobgoblin leader Dourkeg and all bar one of the remaining goblinoids.
  • Day 31 - Cormir, Morthos and Drex return to Tomar's Crossing.
  • Day 32 - The sorceress Merriath the Quick causes chaos as she tries to kill Kadra and is stopped by Cormir, Morthos and Drex, aided by a dwarf Mogadon who had also just arrived in the village.
  • Day 33 - Whilst searching for Merriath the quick, Bazil the Bizarre is discovered to be a murderer, tried, found guilty and executed. Merriath is found, but manages to escape again.
  • Day 34 - The party spend the night in the bakery (on the request of Phelm Barrister), speak with his very unhappy wife, then in the morning leave town returning to Fort Frostfell to find out more about "The Demonplague".
  • Day 35 - The party get attacked by skeletons whilst camping overnight in the wilderness, arriving at Fort Frostfell at midday the next day. Exploring the fort, they fight three zombie knights, put two ancient ghosts out of their tortured existence, and speak with third ghost - Feriae the Wise, a long dead druid who explains more about a demon called Xancrown. Leaving Fort Frostfell behind, the group start the journey towards Gardong Marhold, an old dwarven ziggurat that has been exposed by the melted glacier, and appears to be somewhere that some of the prisoners captured by the Goblins were being taken - presumably for Ralekai Gravemore to experiment on in his (misguided?) quest to find a cure for the plague.
  • Day 36 - After camping overnight, the party level up and...
