Hollow Moon Timeline

by John Calvin

I thought I'd post a timeline of the Hollow Moon to help us fill in some of the blanks that we still have with the setting. Right now this timeline only lists the dates that the various races travelled to or were transported to the Hollow Moon. More than half of the races are still unknowns... hopefully we can start to piece together more of their histories as we continue discussions.

Dates with ?s after them are assumptions on my part.
??? are unknown dates and are placed at the end of the timeline. As we figure these out I will move them into their appropriate position.
Other dates are all based on a reference from one of Sharon's original articles.

Hollow Moon Timeline

BC 14000: Ur-Carnifex transported to the Jura Peninsula

BC 12500: Pteryx city of Attyx transported to the Hollow Moon. Colonise the Apennines.

BC 12500: Shovelface trogs placed in Marsh of Putrescence.

BC 7000: Longlegs trogs placed in Marsh of Putrescence.

BC 2200?: Aardovai placed in the Rilles area. Based on other works stating that these early lupins were subjugated by Taymora

BC 800?: Shaergarde hin (and possibly Gentle Folk) are placed in the Hollow Moon. (This is probably after the fall of Shaerdon circa BC 800 - if true, then no Gentle Folk).

BC 691: Albheldri colony established on Haemus Isles by Nephthisian and Albarendi immigrants.

BC 500?: Nimmurian manscorpions moved to Sohktar (this probably happened shortly after their curse).

BC 400: Pre-Imperial Pateran rakastas placed on Fra Mauro

AC 311: Cynidiceans transported to the Hollow Moon

AC 42: Serraine gnomes travel to Hollow Moon and settle the Taurus Mountains.

AC 800: Traladarans transported to Hollow Moon near Deslandres and found Toroldorsk.

AC 920?: Graakhalian gnolls transported to Jansen savannas. (This is another guess based on the following reference)

Materan spells wrote: On a more contemporary note, while virtually no one (except a few pirates and Kubbitts) had been transported to the Hollow World, as of the boxed set's publication, since the fall of the Milenian Empire, the Hollow Moon's received "new blood" -- in the form of Toroldorskis, Cacklogallinians, Graakhalians and Ostegos, some of whom brought magical skills or scrolls with them -- as recently as 80 years ago!
