Dungeons of Blackmoor and Blackmoor Castle

[Havard]

Posting this here, rather than in a new thread - do we actually, canonically, know who Lord and Lady Alfred are?

Lord Alfred was a ruler (Baron?) of Blackmoor who was axed down by his wife when she caught him cheating with a servant girl. Lady Alfred went on to become a ghost.

In my Rulers of Blackmoor thread, I suggested the following dates:

King Robert I of Geneva (1-38)
The “Dog Duke” (ca 500)
Baron Kargas “Pissaic” Dolmut (ca 600)
Raddan Goss “The Bloody Duke” (805-896)
Baron Calvin (896-927)
Baron Alfred (927-950)
Baron Balfred “the Bald” (950-965)
Baron Alveraz (965-985)
Baron Ra-All “the Wise” (985-995)
Baron Wesely “The Weasel”(995)
Baron Fant (995-1002)
Baron Bakula Andahar (1002-1005)
Baron Uther Andahar (1005-, King from 1014-)

Aldarron has speculated that Alfred could be an Andahar.

I like the idea that Alfred is the father if Balfred. In addition to the IMO rather silly name, the tragic events of his childhood could explain why Balfred went on to become an adventurer with rather excentric tastes such as keeping a jungle beast as his pet.
