Interesting statistics revealed by these dates

27/80 of the characters killed in the party did so within the first game-year of its existence.
That number jumps to 2/3 if you count only full (non-henchmen) characters.

5/9 of full party members killed in the party did so within two weeks of joining it.
In fact, no full party member killed was in the party longer than one year.

In the last thirteen years of the party's existence (out of a total of eighteen years), no full party member was killed.
