Forum:Honor Among Thieves project page

To keep track of what needs doing and who's doing what regarding Honor Among Thieves (HaT) and its various tie-in material, I've created this project page to list the related articles and their statuses. Please check these off and update to indicate which articles are in good shape, which need work, and which you're currently working on or intend to work on soon.

I've marked some as Done based on them having Good banners, appearing complete and comprehensive on a skim, or the knowledge they'd been developed recently. However, even an article that's marked as Done could be revised or expanded, and will need work again after releases, so don't treat these estimates as rigid and expect them to be in flux. Some entries are speculative for various reasons, so check before committing to a major project.

Mark entries off with: in progress, not started, done, and any other details you think necessary. ~ BadCatMan (talk) 02:03, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Timeline
Since the movie's like to be undated and the tie-in novels certainly are, I thought we should start laying out the dating evidence so we can find a year for it or at least just keep our timeline consistent given the flashbacks. First, since Dagult Neverember is out of power, the main events of the movie must be 1496 DR or later. I give it a placeholder year of 149(m) DR.
 * Earlier: Neverwinter's High Sun Games were active when Edgin was young (dad took him to see one), later banned.
 * 149(m−11): 11 years ago, Edgin joins Harpers. Zia is pregnant with Kira.
 * 149(m−7, less a few months): Zia is murdered, Edgin becomes a single dad
 * 149(m−7): 7 years ago, Edgin, Holga, & Kira turn to a life of crime with a smash-and-grab of a jewelry store. Kira is aged 4.
 * 149(m−2): 2 years ago, Edgin, Holga, Simon, and Forge recruited by Sofina for Korinn's Keep robbery.
 * 149(m) DR: Movie start, meeting with Absolution Council. Said to be their "second year of incarceration"; it's been two years since they were incarcerated. Kira is around 11.
