Events

The Harvest Moon Campaign World's history is long, rich, and bloody. After the Dark Times, the people of the world were scattered and tired, as was the Earth. Societies developed in small regions throughout the world, each developing it's own culture and history. When people began traveling and trading again, these cultures came together and caused some conflict. However, global forces such as religion and Dragons forced these people to work together to fight common threats.

These listings also contain brief campaign notes from the first three Harvest Moon Campaigns. These years, from 2005 and even earlier back to 1996 when the first bits and pieces of the world were coming together do not have a very clear and concise listing. Notes from this era are few and far between. Please see the Adventure Summaries section for information on the fourth campaign and beyond.

In the beginning, much of the history was written in a perfunctory, clean and dirty way. During the Quenecian Rennaissance and Holy War campaigns, events were recorded in prose with some entries in the voices of those who lived through it.

Recorded histories can be researched throughout the world, the most accurate accounts are usually hidden, though. It's best to assume that a Knowledge(local) or Knowledge(history) Modifier of +2 is required to have off-hand knowledge of any events that have occurred this year. +4 is required for the past decade, +6 is required for the past 50 years, +8 for the past century, +10 for the past millennium, and an additional +4 for each millennium before that. Assume any research about a specific event listed here to be a DC equal to 10 + the modifier required to know about it in the first place. For example, the DC to research something on this list from a century ago would be 18.

Keep in mind that these numbers will not guarantee any kind of details beyond those presented here. Please go to your DM for further information.

Please note that the Harvest Moon Calendar begins in April.
