| The '''Petrovna Family''' was a [[Nobility of Barovia (Prime Material Plane)|noble]] [[Noble Family|family]] of [[Prime Material Barovia]] and perhaps remains a [[Nobility of Barovia|noble family of Barovia]]. In [[314 BC]], [[Izabela Dilisnya]], the aged [[matriarch]] of her line, was [[assassinated]]. The [[crime]] was blamed upon the [[Katsky Family|Katsky]] and the [[Petrovna Family|Petrovna families]]. They had been locked in a dispute with the [[Dilisnya Family|Dilisnyas]] over the rights to the prosperous (but now played out) [[silver mine|silver mines]] of [[Mount Gries]]. There was also a century of accumulated ill-will between the families. The [[assassination]] touched off the [[War of Silver Knives]]. It was far less a war than a series of tit-for-tat assassinations that [[Count Barov von Zarovich]] ordered an end to in [[316 BC]]. Peace was restored, but the distraction and the losses helped pave the way for the [[Terg Invasion]] in [[320 BC]].
