Events
In this year[edit timeline]
- The Baklunish lich Lyzandred uses a potent spell to pull a giant meteor into Oerth's atmosphere. The resulting fireball streaks across the Oljatt Sea, where it causes concern in the Great Kingdom. It strikes the eastern Abbor-Alz, and its shockwaves sabotage an experiment by cadre of Suel wizards in the Star Cairns, forcing them to abandon their research. (Crypt of Lyzandred the Mad p.2)
- Selvor the Younger observes Lyzandred's meteor, taking it as an omen signifying "wealth, strife, and a living death". He prophecies the coming of an Age of Great Sorrow for the Great Kingdom. (Greyhawk Adventures p.91)
