Once appointed, the local baron(ess) can issue [[mandate]]s and [[demand]]s, and these will be strongly influenced by his or her personal [[preference]]s. Of particular note, a baron(ess) with no item preferences will never issue any mandates (but may still make demands). If a non-mandater is appointed, it may be a good idea to supply additional happy [[thought]]s for him/her to replace those that would have been experienced from having mandates met. | Once appointed, the local baron(ess) can issue [[mandate]]s and [[demand]]s, and these will be strongly influenced by his or her personal [[preference]]s.

If a baron dies, goes insane, or has an [[unfortunate accident]], players will not be able to appoint a new baron ([https://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=2960 Bug 2960]) and consequently cannot get other nobles which are upgraded from baron, i.e. [[count]] and [[duke]]. However, in at least some situations, the fortress can still eventually become the seat of the [[monarch|monarchy]] of its civilization, in which case a baron (or count/duke) for the fortress at least sometimes arrives as part of the monarch's entourage. | If a baron dies, goes insane, or has an [[unfortunate accident]], players will not be able to appoint a new baron ([https://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=2960 Bug 2960]) and consequently cannot get other nobles which are upgraded from baron, i.e. [[count]] and [[duke]].
