Timeline of The Fall of Thronehold



Main Page > Thronehold Page


After the original party we had problems keeping track of when specific things happened to each character. We started this timeline to help keep all the characters properly synced up with each other and with NPC actions. Be aware this timeline includes spoilers for the session write-ups along with OOC information. Time is tracked by the number of days since the characters all woke up together one morning in The Lurching Tower (abbreviated as TLT).
