Events

• Kevelli Mauk receives a premonition of doom. He activates Lendor's Matrix and teleports himself, his ten most powerful students, their slaves, and the Tome of the Scarlet Sign across the Hellfurnaces, less than an hour before the Suloise capital is destroyed. (The Scarlet Brotherhood p.3)
• Twin Cataclysms. In the Suel Empire, the Suel Mages of Power gather their magical energies and call down the Invoked Devastation. No Bakluni cities survive this blast of magical energy. In retaliation, Bakluni clerics and mages gathered at Torag Baragu, using the arcane powers of the Binders and drawing upon the energies of their holiest site, withstand these energies and counter strike with the Rain of Colorless Fire on the empire. The remains of this expenditure of energy are now called the Sea of Dust and the Dry Steppes. (Guide p.9)
• Surviving Baklunish migrate north to the shores of the Dramidj Ocean. (Player's Guide to Greyhawk p.9)
• Axe of the Dwarvish Lords is lost; Legend relates that the greatest dwarf who ever lived, the first Dwarven King, forged this weapon in volcanic fires with the aid of a patron god. It passed from dwarven monarch to dwarven monarch until it was lost in the Invoked Devastation centuries gone. Rumors persist of the appearance of the Axe from time to time in various places, but it supposedly bears a curse.^{[citation needed]}
