Cutefinder: Timeline

History can be muddled at times in the heat of the moment. Thus, a timeline has been drafted to better understand it. As always, this is a wiki, so events can be freely added.

Age of the Innsmouth

-5300 AR / Ar Ciel Third Era, 3772

The Innsmouth comes in contact with the dying planet Ar Ciel. An exchange of science and culture is made and a working, synchronised shadow copy of the SH server of Sol Ciel is constructed. With this shadow copy and a tower emulation system, Mule Teiwaz Artonelico and a select number of volunteers elect to depart on the Innsmouth, while a few of the researchers stay behind.

-5298 AR

Claire Durant is born to a pair of crew members aboard the Innsmouth.

-5297 AR / T.C. 4753

Following the disastrous events of the Miltian Conflict, a traumatised Rubedo takes the first ship he can find out of the system, winding up on the Innsmouth.

-5295 AR

The Everywhere Mesh evaluates the Innsmouth's local causality and assigns a newly-imported Node, D Everywhere, to board the ship covertly and prevent an apocalyptic event centering around the craft. The Node's job under his previous name and life was as a vacuum assassin, and he is attired and equipped properly for similar work here. D fails his task entirely, captured by Innsmouth security and delivered to a cryostasis cell near the security control facility.

-5293 AR

Earthfall. The Innsmouth's Magical Singularity Engine suffers a critical malfunction and the ship drops out of hyperspace on a crash course with the planet Golarion. Using backup power to adjust their course puts them on a slingshot trajectory with its local moon, of which a close scrape critically damages the ship and kills its velocity. It ultimately falls into the planet's atmosphere and breaks up in re-entry, scattering debris across what came to be known as the continent of Avistan before crashlanding in western Sarusan. The impacts scar the land immensely, causing the Age of Darkness and raising a rocky shelf from Sarusan's sea, where tectonic motion gradually disperses the broken ship underneath.

Age of the Elves

-4294 AR

The darkness created by the dust in Golarion's atmosphere finally settles, bringing light to a broken planet. The Innsmouth survivors and their descendants take to the surface and form nomadic tribes. The elves choose to travel far to the east, over the mountains and into forested land.

1732 AR

In the lands that would later come to be known as Kova, a travelling priest of Desna arrives and mingles with the native populace, causing the first foreign influence in the region through worship of the Starsong. This also led to the creation of a small cabal of Desnans simultaneously blessed and cursed with great power through song—power great enough that it burned their life force down to nothing—known as the Starsingers.

2908 AR

The elven nation of Krava is united from disparate clans as the Kravatian Empire. Through history, exploration ships are wrecked passing through the Zemeth Gate, a great tidal barrier that affects the minds of those who pass through it, and the survivors who wash up find themselves treated with derision as second-class citizens.

4585 AR (approx.)

The Kravatians, claiming the need to expand their territory, attempt to pass through the mountains separating them from the western peninsula which they have historically called Kova; they struggle with the mountain's self-healing properties before finally blasting a clear path through, starting the Occupation War.

4595 AR (approx.)

The Kravatian Queen of the time is present at front lines when they discover an ancient city considered holy ground by the native Kovans. She also learns that the powerful artefacts within are what the King was looking for, but this information is gleaned from the dying breaths of an assassin sent to ensure she would "tragically" never return. She begins working in the shadows with the Kovan elders to bring about a peaceful end to the war.

4600 AR (approx.)

The Occupation War abruptly ends as Kova's forts fire upon Kravatian supply caravans and demand they deliver a message to the king: Kova was not a land to be pillaged for profit, and instead would become it’s own country, ran jointly by the exiled Queen and a number of natives that allied with her knowing she meant no further harm.

The Kovan capitol of New Eltrin is founded atop the ancient city, serving as fortified defensive line should Krava try to lay claim to it again.

4606 AR

The death of Aroden. While the isolated continent's denizens are largely unaffected, attempts to divine the future become muddled and unable to discern information more than a few weeks in advance. The Zemeth Gate fades away, leaving clear seas and horizons, along with an influx of foreign vessels and introduction to modern knowledge such as the Absalom Reckoning calendar.

4608 AR

Runica Argensolde is born to a couple that formed during the Occupation War, who have settled in the new port town of Mosulk.

Age of the Guilds

4630 AR (approx.)

The Kravatian Queen present during the Occupation War dies of old age. A new queen rises in her place to continue to represent the Kovanian military; between an influx of violent incidents caused by monsters and other magical phenomena, along with clashes between the Imperial and Native Kovans, she takes a cue from the Pathfinder Society of Absalom and establishes the Guild, composed of members of both sides and split amongst six guildhalls to cover a variety of general and specialised tasks.

4673 AR

Vincram Solomon is born in a small village in the southwest reaches of Kova.

4675 AR (approx.)

The previous leader of Guildhall Drakhan dies of unknown causes. A new leader named Gamello rises in their place.

4688 AR

Runica Argensolde's health begins significantly deterioriating. She winds up bedridden after ten years of fighting a wasting disease with no clear cause or cure.

4690 AR

Vincram Solomon joins Guildhall Drakhan as a researcher.

4695 AR

Wren is born, a scion to a noble family of a distant land.

Dr. Vincram Solomon goes on indefinite leave from Guildhall Drakhan, citing personal obligations but in reality because he caught Gamello selling guild secrets to Kravatian spies.

4699 AR

The Plague of Mosulk occurs. A handling incident of an illegally-transported artefact under the oversight of the Argensolde Trading Company creates a plume of black dust over the port city's skies. As it settles, the streets are evacuated and windows boarded—of those infected, the fatality rate is 99%. The only publicly known survivor is the Argensoldes' daughter Runica, who makes a miraculous recovery from her existing illness.

4700 AR

Dacquoise is brought to Guild Ercinee from the depths of the Innsmouth by her mentor, Kau.

Runica Argensolde develops an innate ability to channel necromantic energy. After some time spent learning to control it, she seeks out the guild's assistance in understanding it, eventually becoming a field researcher for Guildhall Mogaru.

4705 AR

Wren's draconic heritage manifests with magical powers and cessation of age. After an attempt on her life, she is forced to flee and goes on a journey seeking clues as to where her dragon ancestor may have gone.

4715 AR

Present year.
