Formed in the [[Burning Lands]] in 1983. It is the one of the oldest companies of Amtgard, founded after the Star Questing Dragons and Wandering Unicorns, and before the players at Pompeii (the Claw Legion and Corsairs) formally united with the Burning Lands for a unified Amtgard.

[[Sir]] [[Theo Blackflame]] is credited with reviving the company and is recognized as the founder of the modern Golden Lions.
