  • Marpenoth: Reports arise of strange fey creatures appearing in the Hullack Forest and the hills around Thunderholme.[6]
  • Nightal: Heavy snowfall hits Cormyr and the Dalelands, up to a foot in some places. Several ships become trapped in ice on the River Lis.[7]
  • An earthquake in the vicinity of the Laughing Hollow releases an unknown pollutant into the River Delimbiyr downriver of the site. Livestock that drink from the river die in large numbers and Daggerford has to rely on its wells and cisterns for drinking water until the source of the pollution is stemmed.[15]
  • A group of mindflayers place vampire squids into the Giant's Chalice as part of a long-term scheme to goad the lake's inhabitants into seeking aid from their sea elf allies so that they can enslave some.[16]


1357 DR in organizations


1357 DR in people


1357 DR in politics

  • Marpenoth: Zhentil Keep's grip on the cities of the Moonsea loosens as the Zhents become distracted by warfare further south.[6]

  • Flamerule: Azoun IV attempts to strengthen diplomatic ties between Cormyr, Shadowdale, Mistledale, High Dale, and Deepingdale. This act worsens relations with Sembia and Archendale.[5]
  • Rumors of a merchant's or nobles' war breaking out in Westgate begin to spread in the nation of Cormyr.[5] Several dead assassins turn up dead in the harbor of the city.[6]
  • Moonsea caravans sending supplies to Zhent troops in the Dalelands begin quietly changing their destination to Arabel. Zhentil Keep quickly discovers this treachery and abandons support for its occupying forces, instead concentrating on rebuilding Yûlash in an attempt to divert all Moonsea trade away from the Dalelands.[5]
  • During the months of Flamerule, Eleasias, and Eleint, the Night Masks battle the Shore Patrol for control of Westgate's criminal underworld. Adventurers, hired by the city's merchant nobility as bounty hunters, deliver a sharp check to the ambitions of the Night Masks. Their efforts thwart a plot by the ruling Pentad of Night Masters to transform Westgate into a theocracy of Mask, the Shadowlord.[citation needed]
  • Uktar: Aumark Lithyl unifies Ruathym.[20]
  • Waterdeep mediates a truce between Luskan and Ruathym. However, Luskan and Ruathym, together with Tuern and the Whalebones, subsequently make an alliance to raid settlements down the Sword Coast.[4]
  • Netyarch Zalathorm is replaced on the throne of Halruaa by Elder Gabrela for two weeks while he recovers from a particularly disturbing divination concerning the events of the year to come.[4]
  • Slave riots in Messemprar.[citation needed]
  • A tribe of kobolds takes up residence in the Maiden's Tomb Tor, unnoticed by Waterdeep.[29]
  • Lady Alustriel forges an alliance with Bruenor Battlehammer of Mithral Hall and helps defend the dwarf halls against the drow of House Baenre.[citation needed]
  • Geildarr becomes lord of Llorkh after the murder of Phintarn "Redblade", the previous lord. Dwarves start disappearing in Llorkh.[citation needed]
  • The wizard Maalthir launched a succesful coup d'etat against the Council of Hillsfar.[30]
