December 04, 2020 WAK Episode 15 - Sir Randal (Electric Ronin)
This week, we're talking with Grand Duke Sir Randal Pontius Andalsa Egilsson the Steadfast, Librarian of Light, Last Scholar of the Ancient World, Defender of Dragonspine.

Randal is the creator and maintainer of the Electric Samurai, one of the first major homes for Nationwide Amtgard on the web. Now it serves as an archive of times gone by, but a great deal can still be learned.

Randal has also used the platform that was Electric Samurai to write and promote a great many powerful thoughts on amtgard. You can see some of these referenced below that we thought were particularly powerful.
