Baron, or also Freiherr, more commonly frajhér, frajer, vriher (Bohuyis: baëwrohn, fraihärr) is the title of a member of the lower nobility in Klitzibürg. Barons in Klitzibürg are entitled to the title Gracious Lord (Geliegtehärr), and are also entitled to their own coat of arms and appellation; unlike members of the higher nobility, this can only be attached by the preposition of and not von. The title of baron is the only one of the Klitzibürger titles that is non-dynastic and is therefore often awarded to non-Klitzbürgers for their merits. No baron is currently named, but Joel, for example, held the title of baron of Teioronfoentaine.
Etymology
There are two versions of this title, and they are Baron and Freiherr, or Fraihärr. The two differ only in name, with the baron variant being used mainly in Erganburg and Haakonn and Supreme Territory of Teplice and sporadically also in Brüm-Breitzickburg and the Freiherr being used in the rest of Klitziburg.
Powers
Barons have no right to any land or estate, the reason being that the title of baron is more symbolic then anything.
