The Baranov Dynasty was a line of Sköda rulers descended from King Algerd; who founded the Kingdom of Thalar in the year 27/4.
The House of Baranov was an old and distinguished Hüornen noble family, who, by the end of the Third Age, had became the rulers of the city of Al-Enoth. About this time, a young lord named Algerd was approached by the Council of Sorcerë, who asked for his aid against the pending invasion of the West by the forces of Alokkair.
Recognizing the danger to all the free people of Corwyn, Algerd answered the call and gathered his army. The Saar gave Algerd "Peacemaker," a powerful magical sword, which he wielded in the War, along with the other "Seven Champions." Algerd and the forces of the First Alliance defeated Alokkair and saved Corwyn.
As a result of his great victory, his fame and popularity grew and within a few years, all three Thaldain ethnic groups united and anointed him as their first king. Athrenar named his kingdom "Thalar," ordered Frosthaven built as his citadel, and chose its location on an icy bluff overlooking his home city of Al-Enoth.
His descendants continued to sit on the Crystal Throne for 799 years. Tragically, the Dynasty ended in the year 825/4, when the entire Kingdom was destroyed by the Storm of the North.
