[QUOTE="Derthwen, post: 9759434, member: 7035309"] So I a while back made a time line for who the Lord of Avernus is in the Forgotten Realm and made all I could find work as well as the connections to the Realms. it does end up with Zariel as Lord of the first for only about 30 years at most. this is only part of it Forgotten realms has a habbit in 1e and 2e of stuff being listed a veggly long time ago and it ending up the time being much shorter. This does mean an Eon in the hells is 5 years. *for note : 1354 DR Zariel Falls Adnd 1e – 1358 (1358 time of troubles); Tiamat is called out as Lord of Avernus Adnd 2e – 1368 DR; 3e – 1372 DR; 4e 1479 DR; 5e – 1498 and latter; (Decent into Avernus is 1494); Tyranny of dragons is 1489DR the known reigns are (assuming no unknown gaps after 1e) -30,000 DR Malkizid (solar) was banished to the hells by Corellon and became a devil lord (layer unknown). Thousands of years ago was banished from the hells and went to gahena becoming a Yugolath lord. -Gargauth – pre tiamat; was overthrown by Bel, but unknown who took over after. (-1071 DR (maybe)) - 1358 : Tiamat (2428 years or less); is from when Tiamats Unther aspect was killed; i am guessing she was given Lord of Avernus sometime after and she was Lord of Avernus during 1e (1358 (earliest)-> 1368 -> 1372 (latest)) Zariel is named lord of Avernus in 2e (14 years at most). Tiamat starts gaining divinity back. after this time is when Zariel is imprisoned by Bel and Tiamat (1368 (earliest) ->1372 -> 1479 -> 1484 (if BG3) (latest) ) Bel is Lord of the Avernus in 3e and 4e (assuming no gaps) (116 years max) (1479 (earliest) ->1484 (if BG3) -> 1489 -> 1494) Zariel is mentioned is Rise of Timat (1498 DR) to be recently reinstated as Archduchess of Avernus (15 years at most; 10 years min) -if Bladers Gate 3 is being used then it takes place just after Decent into Avernus and Zariel has been in charge for at least 10 years (since 1484 DR) Assuming there are not gaps with someone else as Lord of Avernus. Here are the duration each of the 3 that have had the position during the 136 years from 1e to Decent into Avernus Tiamat : 0 -> 10 years Bel : 107 -> 116 years Zariel : 16 -> 29 years [/QUOTE]
