The Baron (or Baroness) arrives with her/his consort, the Hammerer and the Tax collector. The Baron will be promoted to Count once additional conditions are met. Human diplomats (but not trade liaisons) will meet with the Baron, rather than the mayor.
Right after your fortress and the surrounding lands become a Barony the Baron will arrive.
Currently, this does not have any known consequences, but it occurs at the same time the tax collector and the hammerer arrive, so you may prepare for economy and more justice.
Besides the simple requirements of population and exported wealth, the game designer has made this comment...
- You also need to do a variety of different jobs in the previous year (and have the caravan survive) to trigger the baron. 4 of the following: 25 crafting jobs, 25 metal-related jobs, 25 wood-related jobs, 10 gem jobs, 25 stone jobs, 25 food jobs. That shouldn't be a problem if you are just doing a few things, but if your fort is completely directed toward one activity or another, it won't qualify. - Toady One
Notably, these particular criteria happen to be the same as the 23a:Mayor's arrival conditions in version 0.23.130.23a.
