Biography
The Thirteenth Torch. Most commonly called Rand. The natural born son of Hulka of Allender, he uses the distaff name of Falconbridge instead. Nephew to his eminence Cardinal Dunbar, and Captain of his Scouts.
Shortly after Dunbar's decision to enter seclusion Rand migrated to the HFS kingdom of Barad Duin. In time he rose to the rank of Captain in the Barad Duin Foreign Legion. Rand was one of the chief supporters of King Fish I, who would later name him seneschal and Lord of the Black Tower in Exile.
Despite his regular participation in HFS, Amtgard remains his primary focus. A long time resident of Ditch Central, he belonged to Tori-Mar for much of his career. These days he can regularly be found at the Barony of Slaughter Creek. In HFS he is presently serving out his second ten year term as Chancellor of Bobsnia Torchegovania.

Published Works:
I'm a fairly prolific writer but the examples on that page are all from the bad old days in the mid-nineties. When viewed in the modern light they are reasonably horrific. I have left them here as a historical curiosity. If you go as far as to read them, please view them as a product of their proper place and time. Amtgard has come a long way since then, for that matter so have I. They do not in any way reflect the state and values of our organization in the modern age.
