I know I am getting into a quagmire here but I just noticed today the continuity for Forgotten Realms versus the BG/IWD games is wrong/off, creating a bit of a continuity snarl here.
The Time of Troubles (the transition from 1ed to 2ed) happens canonically in 1358 DR. Gods walk the world, a score of them are brutally murdered, others are eaten by other gods, and Bhaal makes sure he has lots and lots of baby making sex before he is cut down.
Fast forward 10 years and Sarevok (who must be in his 30s?) is terrorising the Sword coast and BG1 takes place in 1368 DR (a year later BG2 happens). CHARNAME is also supposed to be 20.
Even the book is off here as Abdel Adrian (who is of an age with Sarevok) was a thing we want to forget.
Additionally IWD takes place in 1291. Prior to the Time of Troubles, so really ought to have been operating under 1ed rules not 2ed.
Has anyone else noticed this? Or cared? lol.
