Maybe it's on the card or in the Player's Secrets of Roesone (I can't
remember right now), but the jist of it is that Daen Roesone, the founder
of Roesone, is a great-great-etc-grandchild of Prince Raesene. Hence the
Black Baron and the Black Prince. My campaign is centered in the southern
coast of Anuire, and the player who runs Roesone has done a lot of research
into his realm. If anyone is running a campaign there, I highly suggest
the PS of Roesone book - it's really, really good.
