The Raven Keep Campaign

This timeline is a chronicle of events from the many RPG campaigns I have been lucky enough to be part of.

Despite my desire to assert otherwise, I never sat down and planned this all out. I never said to myself that I should link all of the adventures I have ever run into a single multiverse of stories. That was merely a coincidence. I would get to the end of a campaign and start a new one and find myself in need of NPCs or cool magic items so I would borrow them from the previous stories. When I finally got around to the "Cross World Capers" and decided to try to use ALL of the books on my shelves for a single string of interconnected adventures, I, once again, borrowed from what I had done before. This has led to the blending of fantasy, superhero, sci-fi, and western role-playing. I hope the final product (for lack of a better term) turns out as well as I hope for it to.;xNLx;;xNLx;Given the scope of what I hope to accomplish, I thought it would be a good idea to nail down when what happened, mostly so I can keep everything straight in my head when the time to begin merging the campaigns finally arises.;xNLx;;xNLx;The adventures this timeline is based on come from several different sources.;xNLx;;xNLx;The first is the Forgotten Realms/Spelljammer and Marvel Superheroes campaigns I DM'ed in high school.;xNLx;;xNLx;The second is the "Company of the Glowing Spider" campaign that Dwayne ran.;xNLx;;xNLx;The third is the "Wyrmshadow & Co" campaign that Joe ran while we served aboard the USS Rainier.;xNLx;;xNLx;The fourth is the "Raven Keep Campaign" that I launched at the "Camp Rainier Barracks" back in June of 1994 that is still running today via a Play-by-Post group on Facebook.;xNLx;;xNLx;There are some events that exist, mostly based on backstories for characters and the settings, that are used or to fill in gaps of the campaigns that have either been forgotten or lost to the ravages of passing time and failing memories. Some dates are, therefore, estimated.;xNLx;;xNLx;Either way, I hope you, Dear Reader, find reading this timeline as interesting as I found creating it. I would like to extend my thanks to my fellow Dungeon Masters and Players alike for being part of this grand adventure.
