Function
This article is about an older version of DF.

When a fortress meets certain requirements, the liaison will offer to make it a Barony. The player will then have the option to promote a dwarf of his or her choice to the rank of baron, which will occur when the liaison leaves the map. This offer can be rejected to avoid having more nobles, but this results in the player being unable to request imports from their parent civilization. Dwarven caravans will still arrive, but the player loses the option to influence their contents.

Since the baron is promoted from within, rather than immigrating, he or she will not automatically be accompanied by a baron(ess) consort. However, if you chose to promote a married dwarf, then the spouse will become the consort, and will be considered an unlisted noble (doesn't appear in the noble menu, but is listed as a noble in the units menu). Also, the promotion of the baron will not usher in the economy as it did in older versions.

The selected baron(ess) may still perform useful labour from his/her normal life (as a miner, for example). However, as the baron is supposed to be a lazy noble, this seems to be an unintended, broken behaviour in all 0.34.xx versions (so far) and might be be fixed in future releases.

If a baron dies, goes insane, or has an unfortunate accident, players will not be able to appoint another baron and consequently cannot get other nobles which are upgraded from baron, including count and duke.[Verify]

Requirements

  • Have a caravan leave when your population is 20
  • Exported 10k wealth
  • Created (Imported?) 100k wealth

If a player meets the above requirements and still can't promote anyone, this may be due to a glitch. This affects some games and requires that the trade caravan depart before meeting with the liaison in order to get the barony option. Try keeping your mayor and liaison separate until after the caravan has left the map.
