A timeline for ASOIAF

[Ser Lyonel]

Re-read your timeline yesterday night, Tom.

It's very interesting and very useful to make connections beetween the various era of the books! You make interersting discoveries like Jon Arryn knew (at least grew up under )Maekar etc.!

Thanks again.

Thanks for your comment Lyonel:)

Hi everyone,

I was using my holiday time to read again the Hedge Knight.
They say Prince Baelor was 39 when he died (in 208) which means he was born around 168-169.
And that makes me think (again ) that Daemon was not as young as you propose Tom because he would then be younger than Baelor and I don't think it's the case.

My small contribution to Tom's timeline. Thanks again for it.

The Hedge Knight takes place around 209, which appears to be the surer dating. Baelor Breakspear and Daemon Blackfyre were basically of an age -- both were born in the year 169-170.

Hey Tom! Great timeline! Thanks so much & it does add so much to the game. I see Septon Heward has been very busy indeed! Thanks again for all your hard work! Maester Luwin

Thank you M Luwin for the nice words. I intend to update bit by bit, hopefully with the help from the people at this board. So if anyone has any years I can put in, just post it here and I will edit the main timeline.

I just noticed that you are using the 'old' date for the Doom of Valyria: 200 years before the Conquest or 500 years before the present. This was the information given in AGoT. However, GRRM later changed his mind and the Doom was subsequently said to happen 100 years before the Conquest or 400 years before the present (this information is given in the introduction to The Sworn Sword and also in the ASoIaF RPG).

Thank you for the info...have edited it in...hopefully one day soon I will be able to add more stuff to the timeline:)

This is the first time I've read this wonderful timeline, and I'm really impressed. I just sort-of-decided to place my upcoming (maybe, someday, if I can get my Buffy addicted group to a satisfactory ending along the same time that my ASoIaF campaign is ready) campaign in the time of "The Sworn Sword" and "The Hedge Knight". This is a terrific resource and I'm really grateful to Tom and everyone who helped hammer the dates out!

After an eternity away, I have finally found my way back here!

I am setting up a play by forum game and this timeline is EXACTLY what I was looking for, thank you OP for putting this up!
