Used in the City of Waterdeep, Northreckoning dates from the year Ahghairon became the first Lord of Waterdeep ( 1032 DR). This dating system was rarely used outside of official legal documents in Tethyr. Tethyreckoning begins with Founding Year, Year 0 TR, in −212 DR, when Darrom Ithal of Clan Ithal retook the city of Myratma from the Calishites in the Battle of the Purple Marches and was crowned king of Tethyr by the clans.

This is understandable, given that the two reckonings are from two nearby parties and spread by a third (the merchants of Sembia), but it causes learned sages to slam their heads violently against their desks trying to figure things out. Timelines and calendars of the period often use DR designators, but place the founding of Cormyr at 1 DR instead of 26 DR. The 25-year gap between Cormyr Reckoning and Dalereckoning has caused much of the confusion regarding elder days. Cormyr Reckoning (CR) Ĭormyr Reckoning begins at the foundation of House Obarskyr, the dynasty that still rules that land. The calendar is widely used in Faerûn but has not spread beyond its shores. In some texts, primarily those which do not have direct ties to Dales history, Dalereckoning is called Freeman's Reckoning (FR). Since this time, humans were permitted by the Elven Court to settle in the more open regions of the forests. Methods of reckoning Dalereckoning (DR) ĭalereckoning is taken from the Year of Sunrise, 1 DR, when the Standing Stone was raised by the elves of Cormanthyr and the human Dalesfolk.
