The MotUC Timeline

[Irian]

Hi there!

This is the Classics Timeline.

Currently the timeline includes the main information up until around Modulok.

All the bio information can be found here and a more narrative interpretation of the MOTUC story so far can be found here.

Not entirely sure everything is timeline-wise accurate, but this is fantastic! Good job, man.

[adam03]

Not entirely sure everything is timeline-wise accurate, but this is fantastic! Good job, man.

Also I don`t remember anything about King Grayskull`s brother being eaten by King Hiss, or even the fact that KG had brother You mixed him up with ZodaK, who`s brother Zeelar was eaten by King Hiss

[Fisto69]

no he didn't

[Berserker79]

Also I don`t remember anything about King Grayskull`s brother being eaten by King Hiss, or even the fact that KG had brother You mixed him up with ZodaK, who`s brother Zeelar was eaten by King Hiss

It is written in the new bio of KG. Irian is correct.

Thanks!

If anyone finds an error or has a suggestion where the time line may be different, please post away!

[Bulkhide]

Looks awesome at first glance dude! Good Job!

[Irian]

Quick question: When do you think happens the accident that is responsible for Scope becoming Tri-Klops? Before the entrapment behind the Mystic Wall or afterwards?

[Bulkhide]

I would definitely say before.

[Irian]

• Kar-Tor (Zodak) takes Zodac-Zul’s place on the Council of Elders
• Zodak helps lead the Council of Elder’s in battle against the Snake Men,
• Zodak traps King Hiss in the void with the power of his staff.
• Vikor is chosen to protect the Sword of He and battles the remaining Snake Men
• Vikor defends the Valley of Gnarl from the Fighting Foe Men

Do you think the order is correct for the appearance of Vikor?

To me the "remaining Snake Men" seems to place him after the trapping of King Hiss not before.

[Neutro]

Yeah this is great Irian, keep it up!
It really does help to have things spelled out for me.

[Swanmarsh]

Great job Irian.

I know its not stated in the bios, but I suspect it is likely Vikor was involved in the war against Snake Men (and possible against the Horde) before the fall of Grayskull, in addition to after.

Doubt the Goddess, Grayskull and forces of good just ignored such a valuable warrior and ally like Vikor.

Yeah, that sound like a good possibility. Or the Valley of Gnarl is far away and Vikor didn't get in touch with Grayskull before. But it could very well be. Especially as it would give a little variety to the story.

----------
New question: Do you think Orko was assigned to watch over Adam before he united the power sword? I.E. do the He-Men all have a Trollan advisor or only the Cosmic Warriors He-Ro, Grayskull and Adam?

[Beastmaster]

Where did you find this?

"Evil-Lyn frees Gygor to bolster Skeletor's forces against the new Horde army."

[Irian]

Where did you find this?

"Evil-Lyn frees Gygor to bolster Skeletor's forces against the new Horde army."

The news entry for Gygor's bio: http://www.he-man.org/news_article.php?id=1377

Eventually, Hordak returned to Eternia and the savage gorilla was freed by Evil-Lyn in her attempt to bolster Skeletor's forces against the new Horde army.

[Pravus Prime]

Out of curiosity, why are:

Man At-Arms creates Faker
Tri-Klops salvages Faker
Skeletor orders the reprogramming of Faker

So late in your time line?

[Teela-Na]

Nice work. I would prefer a visual time line though as it would be easier to read and see at a glance. You (or someone else) could put an image from the various media next to each entry.

[HordeFan]

An amazing thread! Thank you for the work you've done!

[AGE]

well done my friend.

[hadley]

Do we know when the Lake of Gnarl became the Valley of Gnarl? Is it explained on one of the maps? I wish I had that...

[Thrashor]

Irian dude, that's epic.

[Devil Master]

I just noticed several mistakes in the timeline. This:

Zodac-Zul becomes a member of the Council of Elders

should read: "Zodac Zur becomes a member of the Council of Elders".

This:

The spell spell of separation is thwarted but Procrustus is forced to literally hold the planet together remaining forever at the planet's core

should read: "The spell of separation is thwarted but Procrustus is forced to literally hold the planet together remaining forever at the planet's core".

This:

Kar-Tor (Zodak) takes Zodac-Zul’s place on the Council of Elders

should read: "Kar-Tor (Zodak) takes Zodac Zur’s place on the Council of Elders".

This:

Scychor is healed by rogue scientists by preserving his organs in a robotic chest and his brain in a cyborg skull and becomes Sy-Chops

should read:
"Scychor is healed by rogue scientists by preserving his organs in a robotic chest and his brain in a cyborg skull and becomes Cy-Chop".

This:

Oriu is injured in the Battle of Avion

should read: "Oriu is injured in the Battle of Avion.

This:

Oriu takes the code name Mekaneck

should read: "Orius takes the code name Mekaneck"

This:

The Snake Men attack Molcolm's home town
Molcolm shatters his hand when helping the Masters of the Universe against the Snake Men
Duncan replaces Malcolm's hand with a robotic strong arm.

should read: "The Snake Men attack Malcom's home town
Malcom shatters his hand when helping the Masters of the Universe against the Snake Men
Duncan replaces Malcom's hand with a robotic strong arm."

[Shokoti's Slave]

Anyone else think they'll make Shokoti the evil sorceress that trapped the Star Sisters?

[hadley]

In the MOTUC narrative, it seems like the vast majority of the Horde empire is in the Eternia dimension. After Hordak was banished to Despondos, he took over Etheria. In the 5,000 years since he was banished, Horde Prime grew the empire throughout the Eternia dimension, but has kept a distance from Eternia itself. Is Etheria the only planet in Despondos that the Horde holds? This seems like a reversal of the POP narrative. Please let me know if I've got this right or if I'm missing something here... also, if this is the case, how the heck does Hordak interact with Horde Prime as in the POP cartoon?

[Irian]

So, it seems interest in the Timeline has pretty much dried off over the last couple of months and considering that the last few bios didn't really add anything to the Timeline I thik we are done for the time being. Maybe when there's a major new development I'll start updating again - but so far: Thank you for the interest and support over the last few years: So long and thanks for all the fish!
