[QUOTE="dreaded_beast, post: 1409570, member: 11185"] Thanks for pointing me in the right direction guys. I was able to get access to "Dwarves Deep", so I did a quick persual and found just what I was looking for: the dwarven kingdom of Ammarindar. This timeline is taken from [url]http://www.o-love.net/realms[/url]. According to them, their timeline is from canon material. DR 880 - First demons summoned at Ascalhorn DR 882 - Ammarindar overan by humanoids and fiends from Hellgate Keep DR 1221 - Tunnels dug from Hellgate Keep to abandoned Ammarindar kingdom DR 1369 - Hellgate Keep falls / Fey'ri released (Races of Faerun) DR 1372 - Campaign starts Ammarindar, a weak dwavern nation centered in the Greypeak Mountains fell when Hellgate Keep was created. Ammarindar was known for creating Everbright Admantite armor. The border of the nation was once along the tree edge of the High Forest, which was Eaerlann during this time. Here is the rough idea I have come up with: Around DR 880, a small dwarven hold existed within the High Forest, between the Lost Peaks by the Dancing Falls. Ammarindar was on good terms with Eaerlann, which allowed the small dwarven hold to be established. The area of Dancing Falls contained a concentrated pocket of admantite, which the Ammarindar dwarved mined and forged into weapons and armor. A Sun Elf House, the ancestors of the Fey'ri, commissioned the forging of an adamantite blade by the Ammardindar Dwarves of Dancing Falls. A small group of Sun Elves travelled to Dancing Falls to assist in the creation of the blade, resulting in the creation of a fabled "moonblade". The Sun Elf House had created a moonblade for the leaders of their family and house. However, before the moonblade could be sent to the Sun Elf House, the elven citadel Escalhorn fell. In DR 882, waves of fiends swept through the High Forest and eventually reached the Dancing Falls, resulting in the slaughter of it's inhabitants. The elven "monblade" was lost in this area. The area was plundered by the fiends, but the fiends were driven back to Hellgate Keep before the "moonblade" was discovered. The "moonblade" lay dormant for nearly 400 years. The Fey'ri were freed from Hellgate Keep in DR 1369. The Fey'ri seek to consolidate their power by raiding secret magic stores of their Sun Elf ancestors, known only to them. The Fey'ri know of the creation of the "moonblade" and have sent envoys to discover it, hoping to wield it since they are the last "true" scions of the Sun Elf House that orginally created the "moonblade". The PC for the campaign, suffering from amnesia, does not know she was sent by the Fey'ri to discover the location of the "moonblade". The PC's ancestory leads back to the ancient Sun Elf house, which means she is one of the last true scions of the Sun Elf house. The PC must unlock the secret of her past: discovering that she is in league with the Fey'ri and discover the "moonblade" before the Fey'ri do. If anyone sees any plot holes or gaps, missing dates, canon history inconsistencies, etc. please let me know. This is still a work in progress. Should I put this in a new thread? [/QUOTE]
