I know the whole history of vana'diel......I just cant ever find the years that these events have happened at. The closest I come is looking at the Vana'Diel Profiles on the Tribune.

Does anyone know what time exactly the Crystal War begun.....and ended. I know that the story of FFXI occurs 20 years after the Crystal War....but thats all I know. Does anyone have any insight for me? I'm trying to make an accurate timeline for my character in my RP LS.
 
Where you know the storyline n such from? I read a link to a thing somewhere but it was a dead end :(

I am a total whore for content and backstorys, so help would be appreciated :D
 
That's quite handy, but it doesn't seem to have any dates on it. The only clue I can think of is the opening cutscene, where the narrator tells of the year the troops were gathered.
 
The monuments for the mayor's quest in Selbina give dates and I believe they may reference the Crystal War.
 
theres a really cool text file that dates back from the start of the JP release and how things were messed up and changed and etc.. i dont know the link, but it was funny to read.... it gave all the changes on every update.. (ie patches and level cap increase and etc)

i remember reading about paladins not being tanks, and how they learned cure causes hate spikes... so in turn they gave paladins more mp and they thus became tanks... and that prior to that warriors were tanking primarily....
 
they alway said that the cystal war was 20 year before and the zilrant, prom people where 40years before
 
I'm glad yall like it and i'm glad I had found it ^.^

It really helps to clear up alot of questions but the fact still remains.....I need the dates. If it is actually in the intro movie.....i'll need to look through that again, its been awhile since I have.

Just to show yall what I have so far.....i'll post my timeline of my character on here. This is everything that has happened to my character RP wise since I have started Roleplaying in FFXI which is......about two years or so.

Some parts seem to push the boundries of the canon of the story but those were times when I had thought I was quiting the game.....but ended up coming back. :P

***********************

542 - Acheufagais R D'Oraguille was born. The ninth king of San d'Oria who ruled from 558 to 567; fourth son of Harvest King Resviel. At the age of sixteen, he personally slew his stepbrother--a contender to the throne--to become king.

557 - Marelinne R d'Oraguille was born. The tenth ruler of the Kingdom of San d'Oria, who reigned from 568 to 588. Cousin to the Warking. After losing her parents while she was still an infant, she was secretly adopted and raised by the family cook. When she was ten years old, the Warking suddenly died on the throne, leading to heightened tensions between regional leaders. Just when it seemed that a civil war was imminent, Marelinne's name surfaced as the rightful successor to the throne, when it was proven that she was a blood relative of the late king.

588 - Marelinne R d'Oraguille went missing and was presumed dead.

739 - Ranperre R d'Oraguille was born. Ranperre R d'Oraguille, the 24th king of San d'Oria, reigned from 782 to 832. Also known as the Dragon King, Ranperre was hailed as the greatest monarch of the d'Oraguille family. He was born the eldest son of the crown prince of West San d'Oria, and diligently studied the arts of war from childhood. Ranperre acceded to the throne after agents of East San d'Oria murdered his father.

768 - Erpalacion B Chanoix was born. From an early age, Erpalacion served as a page to the king. In addition to performing his duties in the royal court, he studied under the tutelage of a dragoon veteran. Erpalacion showed amazing promise, and, at the tender age of 16, he was conferred the rank of master dragoon.
