I probably should have thought of this before I went hammering out Rubella's age and origin. So the whole backstory is that Rubella was once an acolyte of Sheela Peryroyl as well as one of the halflings making up 5% of the Vast's population. Along came clerics of Talona kicking off the Featherlung plague which ravaged Procampur and the rest of the Vast (but mostly Procampur) in 1367 DR (references here and here). Rubella (or whatever her actual birth name was at the time) came to Procampur to help out. Unfortunately, she very quickly found that she was in over her head...kind of like taking a hospital intern, sticking her in the middle of London during the Black Death and telling her, "Here you go! Now fix this mess." Naturally, a personal contraction of Featherlung, a crisis of faith and a chance encounter with one of the responsible parties followed, and the rest is muddled history. I did forum searches for "year" and "present time" but found nothing relevant. Like I said, the epidemic struck in 1367 DR. So how many years have passed between then and the present time? Or is the present time before 1367, meaning that I've screwed up and now I'll have to do some serious backpedaling?

The current year would be 2017 CE - hope that helps?
But if you like you could also use, for gaming purposes, 1368 DR - I believe that is the date the server is using.
So you're safe and no need for those little feet to be doing any backpedaling.
