The Grand Duchy of Bara-Duin
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.
The device of the Grand Duchy of Barad Duin was a white banner adorned with a Black Tower with cresent moons and stars over a blue river.
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.
