Baric Otrand
Son of Western Lord Cedric Otrand
The Siege of Tholmrest (4E, 195):
In a bid to solidify their hold over Otrandus, Queen Sabina the Stern launched a massive siege against Tholmrest , the capital city of Otrandus. The siege lasted for several grueling months, with Lord Baric Otrand, son of Cedric, leading the defense. Despite facing overwhelming odds, the defenders displayed unwavering resolve and resourcefulness, ultimately forcing the besieging forces to retreat. Tholmrest was almost entirely destroyed in the siege. So even though the defenders held their ground, the land which they called home was razed.
The Otrandian Accord (4E, 207):
After years of conflict, both Paladé and Otrandus recognized the futility of continued bloodshed and the toll it took on their lands. A diplomatic resolution was sought, leading to the signing of the Otrandian Accord. This treaty marked the end of Otrandus as a separate nation, with a union between Paladé and Otrandus forming the kingdom of Palandis. Lord Baric Otrand, in a display of statesmanship, became an esteemed advisor to the new ruler, Westqueen Jeni Boggan of Palandis.
Lady Rosalind Boggan was a prominent noblewoman and influential figure in Paladé. Known for her exceptional intelligence and diplomatic skills, she played a pivotal role in negotiating peace treaties and fostering alliances with neighboring realms. Lady Rosalind's efforts in diplomacy and statesmanship were instrumental in preserving Paladé's stability and prosperity during turbulent times.
Some say she fought so diligently for peace because she married the son of House Otrand, Baric.
