Are we to expect the deaths of some of the deities mentioned in the Grand History of the Realms to occur this year in the setting, or no?

I'm waiting for 1385, and Lathander becoming Amaunatar. My healing-oriented Lathanderite will embrace bureaucracy and start Cormyr's first HMO.
Make sure you get a referral from your assigned Primary Cleric Provider before requesting a Raise Dead.

Hawk made a very solid post about this at the end of last year over at frc.proboards.com/thread/29400/continuityI'm sure any big world changing events like a Deity dying/changing would include a DM announcement, giving information about what is felt, how the various churches of such are coping in the aftermath, what's happening in regards to rumours / political intrigue and attempts at hostile take over of their previously owned lands and the like.

i hope not,i think we would loose more than we would gain. and i would mostly feel sorry for the people who have to make all the changes, like deity selector in the welcome room, lists on the forums. All the PC remakes that have to be handled if a god dies or changes and the characters suddenly turn illegal. Temples that would have to be removed, added, changed and so on..
so much work, for so little gain IMO.

Hi Folks One quick note about FR Continuity and FRC frc.proboards.com/thread/29400/continuityWe may adopt individual events or ideas in the late Grand History of the Realms timeline, but in general we have no intent to take the Forgotten Realms off the rails to follow the 4th Edition path. We currently have no plans for mass deicide, spellplague, famine, or pestilence. We plan to rock your character's world in other ways

Looking at you, Haela ... might be lucky yet again...

I don't think anyone wants to see 4th edition material. Actually, Jennsman said it simplest: it's not worth it, too little gain. Still got that keen eye on Haela though...she best watch herself.

Wasn't the spellplague and the pantheon decimation of 4th edition retconned by the second Sundering in 5th edition? I admit I don't really know what exactly happened just that all the dead gods came back both forwards and backwards in time...or something.

Basically ao recreated the tablets of fate. Doing that brought all the gods back.

Looks like it was reset after all, I guess we can choose to ignore it and still be lore compliant

Well, there's the fact that he doesn't have druids. Chauntea (summer), Mielikki (autumn), and Auril (winter) have druids... but there are no druids of the god of spring. Plus, Lathanderites sometimes tend to go overboard on the Sun imagery, even though he's not a sun deity.

That sounds interesting. If I knew what I was doing in building modules, I'd dig out my copies of Shadowdale/ Tantras/ Waterdeep and convert them from 2E to NWN.

I think it would be neat if some of the known events are brought in to use for DM events. This could encourage players to make new characters, and perhaps even bring in new players to the server.
Heck I’m surprised we’re not using the events of the Zorastryl dispute along with the Wild Magic stuff to replace (the awful and unwanted) Spellplague story.
I think there are some events that could be used to raise the stakes of the heroes without always resorting to PvP, or monsters scaled up to the average level of the party.
