I have incorporated an adventure from Goodman games into a campaign set in the Forgotten Realms, Dalelands DR 1372. I am wanting to flesh out a room with prophets from all ages that, hopefully, have some historical place in the realms. Any help would be appreciated.

You mean Alaundo the Seer?

And he wasn't the only one to *name* the years on the 'Roll of Years.' The names are already known, well in advance... since they're drawn from the prophecies of Augathra, Alaundo and others, made centuries past.

Also there are some prophesies mentioned in Steven Schends wonderful Empires of the Shining Sea.

You have the Phoenix Prophesies, so named after the most famous of the southern prophets (Abbalayar), Nar'ysr, known as the Phoenix of Calimshan.

Another is the Caleph Augeries, which is just the works of the aboved named individual. A subset of this subset of prophesies are The Eclipses, which are dark Prophesies, fortelling of great disasters and the fall of Empires.
