27: Lots of demons enter the mortal world, especially in the kingdom of Zinar. The humans inflict a surprising defeat to the demons, who are pushed back, out of the mortal world.
31: End of the First Great Demon War. Most of the demon lords are dead, and the demons are pushed back into the Abyss, which is (even more) in a state of total anarchy. No gods died, but the war has taken an enormous toll on their resources.
57: Beginning of the Second Great Demon War. It turns out that Orcus, Grazz't and Demogorgon are not dead. Demons assault the gods, their angels and their worshipers just about everywhere in the multiverse.
66: Turns out Lolth and Gruumsh have been cooperating with the demons all along. Lolth steals and destroys the Spirit Stone.
67: With demons in great numbers in the mortal world, the primal spirits are forced to lift the ban of the gods, so that they can help out Macera.

As Kord is slowly butchered, Grazz't also tricks Ioun out of Hestavar by making her think that she can save Kord and Avandra.

Gruumsh, Lolth, Demogorgon and Orcus corner Tiamat and Bahamut in the Forgotten Fortress where the Two-Who-Were-Once-One fall together, as they were born together. Corellon and Melora catches Lolth and Gruumsh without support, and manage to slay Gruumsh before Lolth slays Melora. Asmodeus, Pelor and the Raven Queen sacrifize Corellon and thus unleash the Spellcurse, an ancient uncontrollable magical force that ravages through the ranks of the demons, decimating their numbers. The three Demon Lords flee back to the Abyss, and as Lolth follows, she is intercepted by Bane and killed. As the demons once again are back in the Abyss, the portals to the Elemental Chaos are closed are sealed off and the war is over.
109: Ten years after it is unleashed, the Spellcurse has run it's initial course, but it's hard to evaluate the full extend of what it has done. Most people or creatures initial affected are long dead. In fact, they died a quick and agonizing death shortly after being affected. But still the Spellcurse linger. Some people are born with it, some are just born with the mark, which may in turn develop into having it. But the Spellcurse of now is weak, and people often live many years before dieing. Although most go insane long before dying.
249: Current year.
