i'm playing a campaign set in the year 365 AC, more or less 7 years after Raistlin "shuts the gate"

i've some doubts about the age and whereabout of some prominent characters, maybe somebody can help.

here i go: when was born, and where lives now (365 AC)...
Caramon
Tika
(any children? how many? age?)
Tanis
Laurana
Ariakan (Ariakus' son)
Goldmoon
Riverwind
Gilthanas

Gunthar uth Wistan is the Grand Master of the Knights? or just the High Justice?

Who is the ruler of Neraka and Sanction?

who are the rulers of Silvanesti nad Qualinesti?

uff uff...pant pant

sorry for so many questions... just eager to make a good play...ehehe

oh, almost forgot, last question (more of a curiosity): Loralon, the greates elf cleric ever, had a beard?

Actually, Delazar is correct, according to the novels, Loralon, who lived in Istar and was an advisor to the Kingpriest before being banished back to Silvanost, was so old that he actually had long, wispy white hair on his face. Not a beard per se, but most unusual for an elf, unless they are quite old, as is the case here. You can learn more about him in the Kingpriest Trilogy, mostly book one, "Chosen of the Gods".

Don't know his status in 365 AC, but he could very well still be alive since the Gods basically took the true clerics from Krynn before the Cataclysm and they didn't necessarily age or die during thier respite from the "real world".

Well...Loralon showed up in the comics shortly following the War of the Lance. Now...whether or not you adhere to this is up to you.

As for your other questions:

I can tell you most everything, I think....

Caramon Majere: Born in 326 AC, living in Solace, co-proprietor of the Inn of the Last Home.

Tika Majere: Born in 332 AC, living in Solace, co-proprietor of the Inn of the Last Home.

Tanin Alontier Majere: Born 358 AC, living in Solace

Sturm Arlis Elrohan Majere: Born 359 AC, living in Solace

Palin Rintalaisin Majere: Born 361 AC, living in Solace

Dezra Majere: Don't know when she was born...but I believe it is before 365 AC

Laura Majere: Again...don't know when she was born...it might be after 365 AC

Tanis: Born in 249 AC, living in...crud...I can't remember...maybe Kalaman.

Laurana: Born in 271 AC, living where ever Tanis is.

Gilthas: Born sometime in the late 350s AC. Son of Tanis and Laurana...future Speaker of the Sun.

Ariakan: Don't know when he was born...but I think he's still in prison at this time.

Goldmoon: Born in 322 AC, Living on the Plains with the United Plainsmen.

Riverwind: Born in 319 AC, Living on the plains leading the United Plainsmen.

Moonsong: Born between Chronicles and Legends living with parents.

Brightdawn: Born between Chronicles and Legends living with parents.

Wanderer: Born shortly after Legends living with parents.

Gilthanas: Born in 241 AC, he is currently in Kalaman at this point, I think...but don't quote me on that...check out the sourcebook/novel "Reader's Companion" Odyssey of Gilthanas to know for sure.

Leader of Nereka: None...it is abandoned and remains so until after the Chaos War.

Leader of Sanction: I'm not really sure...it's still seedy...but I believe the Dragonarmies are gone at this point.

Ruler of Qualinesti and Silvanesti: Porthios has become the Speaker of the Sun and Stars. (he leads both nations still at this point). Alhana is his queen. They will have a son, Silvanoshei, in 383 AC.

Hope this helps! :D

I don't believe it was Kalaman, It was Gilthanas who was asked to be the Lord/mayor of Kalaman. But we do know that around 378 Tanis was living in Solanthus.

You should probably check out Second Generation. The short story there, has Laurana and Tanis living near Solanthus.

Wanderer: Born shortly after Legends living with parents.

Hmmm. i seem to think that wanderer was born before Legends. In Chronicles, Riverwind tells tanis that goldmoon is pregnant while their sinking into the maelstrom. It was one of the reasons Goldmoon and riverwind stayed behind when tanis headed to neraka to find Laurana.

many thanks to all of you!!!

regarding dragonarmies territories, i guess there must be somebody who took the place of the Highlords, if they're all dead...

i checked "Tales of the Lance" boxed set, but they still mention Ariakus as alive and kicking, leading Sanction from his throne...i prefer to play following the Chronicles and the Legends...so Ariakus and Kitiara (and Bakaris) are dead...

is anywhere a description of the other Highlords?

Tales of the lance is for a campaign during WotL, that´s why Ariakus is described as ruler of the dragon armies.

That supplement also tells of 3 other dragonlords:

Khalaras (18th level cleric) from the red dragon army, there si no information on him, but i guess he was some sort of liutenant.

Shalakan (17th level fighter) Hilord of the green army. In the 15th aniversary book u can find more information on him, as much as I rememeber he was kind of a coward, yet his victories were the mistakes of others. His "best" tactic is to set a siege at the places he wanted to conquer.

There's a black Hilord, but i can´t remember his name right now, he also appears in the same book. He liked to torture his victims with acid. He was a 17th level barbarian.

They were never mentioned in Chronicles, but in a campaign they might still be alive in year 365 and lead small bands near Sanction, balifor and the minotair isles.
