| − | Founded by [[Nithanalorn]] in late 1987, the Grand Duchy of Barad Duin was one of the first Amtgard groups outside of El Paso, located in Austin, TX.

| − | His Most Aquatic Majesty [[King Fish I]], was the last true ruler of Barad Duin.
| |

| − | Its a long story ([[Barad Duin split]]) but to make a long story short, Barad Duin voted to leave Amtgard and found its own group, the [[High Fantasy Society]] [[HFS]], using a similar but distinctly different ruleset.
| |
| − | | |
| − | When this happened, two of the other smaller amtgard groups in the area, [[Turris Lunae]] and [[Bifost]] remained in Amtgard and went on to form the [[Celestial Kingdom]]. Some amtgarders in Austin also chose to stay in Amtgard, using the name [[Brightlands]] and later [[Tori-Mar]], which went on to be one of the main groups of the Celestial Kingdom as well.

| − | Barad Duin still exists today, and some of its people participate in Amtgard as well. | |
