Von Zeklos Keep: Because of troubles with some outlanders, violence erupted, and many assassins are slain in the Keep. Conflicts grew between the Boyar Vincent and the town of Vallaki, a civil war brewing. By the end of the year the Keep was stormed by a group of outlanders and a group of undead. Most of the family of Von Zeklos was slain, and Toret Alurto also fell in the siege with many innocent servants and boyar guards. This tragic night came to be known as "The Night of Shadow and Sorrow", and the Von Zeklos lands remain haunted to this day. The Keep remained in ruins and mostly inaccessible for several years.

Perfidus: This fiendish realm was discovered in the Mists. Though initially the Vistani form a little camp outside the place, they eventually stop traveling there. Since 770, Perfidus has remained lost in the Mists, visited only by those brave or reckless enough to dare the mistways.
The First Invidian Invasion: Barovia was invaded by Invidian forces. Supported by Falkovnian mercenaries, the Invidians attacked the Vistani; the invaders were driven back at the Battle of Tser Pool.
The Siege of the Western Gate: The conclusion of the First Invidian Invasion resulted in a rogue regiment of Falkovanian mercenaries laying siege to the Western Vallaki Gate. Their leader, War Marshal Hanns Wolfklause, demanded gold and food as tribute or else the fishing town would be slaughtered. Fortunately Vallaki was saved by the heroic efforts of a coalition of the Vallaki Guard, the now-disbanded Vallaki Militia, and conscripted outlanders, all under the command of Sergeant Gregori Iorgovan. The three week siege was lifted after a fierce battle and the residents of Vallaki saved.
Von Zeklos Keep: Toret Salvatore Alurto was cursed, re-born as an undead wight. Two people, Gard and Marle, approached him carrying the symbols of Ezra, and persuaded him of a new Revelation, the Fifth, to be the Final Revelation there. It was soon labelled as heresy, and their followers gradually go into hiding. Meanwhile a plague spread around Vallaki, having its source in Von Zeklos's lands: it was rumoured the plague was caused by a survivor of the Von Zeklos family, Juliana.
The Wayfarer Kinship: Retired adventurer Loric Ashall opened the lodge in Vallaki for all good-willed people.
