Talk:Fourth World Timeline

Because we need one. With Andy writing his history of Kalchichi on one part of the site and me writing Coruvain's on my bit we're in danger of losing cohesion without something like this. --Alex 11:51, 5 April 2008 (BST)
Added some stuff for Kalchichi. All dates are negotiable at point. When I put the kobolds up next to "Writing invented" I was thinking of hyroglyphs. I'm currently thinking of ancient Kalchichi as having quite a lot in common with egypt. I'll probably get round to adding something about that latter. Andy 15:05, 5 April 2008 (BST)
I put that one in to represent cuniform/heiroglyphics. I think I mentioned somewhere in the prehistory bit that it was about seven thousand years since writing and some ziggurats being built (the latter of which I think I credited to the hobgoblins). In fact I think I mentioned a valley in which writing began, which you can plonk in Kalchichi if you like. --Alex 11:09, 11 April 2008 (BST)
As I've put down, Kalchichi lost most of its land Coruvain about 75 years ago. I've also mentioned that Kalchichi alos suffered from the first use of atomic weapons. I suggest that these two events coincide, and that it was someone in Coruvain who launched it. I don't know if you want to work that into the history of any of your "pet" nations. If not, I'll grab one or more of 10,000 other countries that you've made up for the southern continent. Andy 13:15, 18 April 2008 (BST)
Kelhaven are 'sort of' good guys, and Glade are extreme environmentalists, so neither feel very appropriate (unless there's enemies on their borders). Feel free to grab any other nation though (except Riven; I've come up with something interesting for them...).--Alex 17:01, 18 April 2008 (BST)
- Oh, you might want to grab the Redclaw wizard family to help in the creation of any nuclear devices. They're arms merchants (or financiers of arms merchants) and interested in fire magic and big bangs according to my wizard family history, so they sound like the sort to invest in such creations...--Alex 17:05, 18 April 2008 (BST)
Actually, Glade sounds like it might have quite a dislike of the rather dirty industry of Kalchichi. They might not have designed nuclear weapons themselves, or even fought directly against the Kobolds, but I could see them supplying arms/money for someone elses war effort. They may have been horrified when they saw the effects of the first bomb, but it would be a bit late to back ou then. Still I'll leave that up to you. Andy 16:27, 20 April 2008 (BST)
- I've started work on this little event, which will eventually fall under the Aliance War]. It will involve Kalchichi and several other countries, including one which I'm going to add to northen Finrize (Currently an empty haze), the Mermen and somebody in Coruvain.
