NOTES:1Because Ivid the Undying does not exist in a numbered paper format, the references to Ivid are givenin terms of Chapter Headings and Subheadings within the material. Please see the Sources list belowfor specific heading relation to abbreviations used in the GreyChrondex .2OJ 7, Oerth Journal #7 produced by the Council of Greyhawk (e-zine), Shadis 50 (August 1998).These two non-TSR publications contain the "canon" adventure "The House on Summoner Court" byRoger Moore. TSR granted permission to both of these publications to print this Greyhawk adventure.The OJ 7 version is an earlier, less polished version of the adventure, but contains information notfound in the Shadis 50 version.3TSR114<strong>42</strong>, Bastion of Faith, while not specifically a Greyhawk product is the first WotC "generic"support product (for 2 nd ed.). While not specifically Greyhawk, this product was heavily supported bypast members of Team Greyhawk, and has a very strong Greyhawk relation. (Note: The ShatteredCircle, 11325, was the first "generic" module related to Greyhawk, but it had virtually no Greyhawkmaterial. )4 Beginning with TSR 117<strong>42</strong>, Gazeteer, “canon” as a concept becomes a non-essential point. Theofficial WotC stance of anything that is published by WotC with regard to Greyhawk in 3E is canonregardless of source (Dragon, Dungeon, modules, accessories, etc.). This stance, combined with thepolicy of freedom of creativity of designers (add, subtract, change without necessary regard to anyother Greyhawk product), insures that the setting, while being “freed” in one sense, will also becometoo confusing to keep up with in another. The potential for conflicting information is just too great.Updates will include this dated information, but it does not have any necessary connection to what hasbeen presented previously, and error should be considered highly likely (although it won’t be error,because there is no “canon” in the traditional sense). I will only include information from modules andaccessories specifically related to Greyhawk, and not Dragon articles nor Dungeon offerings.5 August, 2000 ushered in the first dated broad distribution RPGA publication for Greyhawk the“Living Greyhawk Journal” (LGJ). This material is considered “Alternative Setting” but serves as aguide for “canonical” purists, to some degree. Other Living Greyhawk RPGA material will also beincluded.In all instances the designation [assumed] means that the entry gives probable cause for the date in theGreyChrondex, e.g. "Ten years ago," or "a Century ago" where the comparison base date is known, orthe event is directly connected to a dated event.The designation "c" before a date indicates the same information, but is generally used when the dateis "fuzzy" (circa), that is, the events could have happened in a range of years.The designation [figured] means that a non-CY date has been converted to the CY standard.Text marked in green indicates material that was not considered "canonical" by Team Greyhawk, butthat is found in TSR/WotC/Hasbro products, articles, etc. related to Greyhawk, and may easily be usedwith the setting. Text marked in red indicates WotC/Hasbro 3E material (see above). And text markedin purple indicates WotC’s RPGA “Living Greyhawk” material.In instances where a location name has changed (e.g. the North Province becoming the NorthKingdom), the new name follows the old name in parenthesis. This is also true in cases where alocation “belongs” to another region as when a forest is within a kingdom. In cases where a locationno longer exists as a political entity in any form, the location is indicated by brackets (e.g. the Great
