Good question, Yair. For the most part, the story of the other barons is being left a blank slate for filling in later on, but I know that a previous baron had a magical greatsword he called "Headsman," because he used it to enforce Imperial law during a particularly lawless period.
Other barons/baronesses I know already:
1st baron of Midwood - Gideon, a knight given an undesirable fief. (It had a green dragon next door!)
7th baron of Midwood - The current baron's father, groomed his son to take over, but the son was killed in a landslide before that could happen. He died elderly and heartbroken.
8th baroness of Midwood - The middle child of the 7th baron's three children, she had joined the church when it looked like her brother would take over the succeed. Picture a golden-haired warrior cleric. She died fighting a humanoid invasion during a particularly brutal winter and was shot and killed by a poisoned crossbow bolt magically treated to prevent divine healing.
9th baron of Midwood - Nicodemus Midwood was the child who was never supposed to be the baron, and instead became a scholar and diviner more interested in hunting in the Hartwood than statesmanship. Thrust into the situation, though, he has done the best he can, and is a good man in an increasingly precarious position.
