Reference: hexarchate/heptarchate timeline

[yhlee]

Since this campaign involves time-traveling, I thought some of you might enjoy having a basic timeline for reference--among other things, those of you with h*archate OCs can decide which time period you're from. (You don't have to decide this straight off; you can leave it open/undetermined.)

Feel free to add important dates for your own characters in comments if you like, and I can update this to include them.

Edited to add: I do have some additional dates (like major book characters' birthdates and so on) that I omitted in the interests of abbreviating this thing. If you have questions about specific things that are not on here, I'm happy to answer--just leave a comment.

NOTE: italicized events/etc. are probably not canon (e.g. player characters or AU events).

Sasha is from around the year 5000 of the fourth revelation, which is about 200 in this timeline, give or take fifty years. Her facility with later technology is due to some combination of rebellion-aided study, heretical intuition, and the hexarchate's habit of paying too much attention to exotic effects and neglecting the basics.
