For some reason this popped in my head today and i have thought of it before.
Who is this sandlord of redstorm? There seems to be very, little information other than he is mysterious, rules redstorm and for some reason has or appears to have a long lifespan...
I remember I use to have an item with a long dead char and gone char which had the sandlord's name, or suppose name?
Is he like a little league muk/ tek sorcerer king?

Assuming not all of this is too IC, I just find there is so little if any information on him when i played characters in redstorm.

You know, probably about as much as a PC in Red Storm would.  As a matter of fact, you might know a great deal more.  After all, the populace of Red Storm would be illiterate, with no written records, and thus no knowledge of how long the Sand Lord, or Red Storm, has been around.

The Sand Lord is a mysterious figure.  If you want to know more, find out IC.

I always figured he was a minion of the Dragon. I can't see any reason why that would be wrong ;)

One way it could be wrong.. was if he actually wasn't.

As for how much information any given PC is supposed to know about the Sandlord, I haven't heard a single shred of IC information about his identity in all my time in Armageddon, so we can assume this Sandlord may be any number of things, if he/she/it exists at all. His true identity is not common knowledge to anyone, including residents of Red Storm.

For all we know he could be a crazy robot sent back through time to change history forever.

I was always under the impression that by Sand Lord they meant there is only one of them - you on the other hand are a population of five. I see a problem. Either the world has gone mad, or you're not really Sand Lord.

No, only one of the monkeys responded, here is the breakdown as I see it:

- SandLord
- Tek
- Muk
- Thexi
- <his current PC>
When we found her Marnlee mornin',
Hoofprints walking up her back
There were empties by her war braids
And sixty-five dead carru in a stack.

Thexi?

Dude, the beggar outside the Trader's rates way above Thexi.

The last few posts of this thread serve as a classic example of what Sanvean brought up as a pet peeve, in the General Discussion forum:

Just in case anyone needed a concrete visual to represent the problem, you need do nothing more but look up at the messages above this one.

Hey, Flaming Ocotillo?

Good call.
I apologize.

In browsing for some information, I noticed the  timeline seems to be a wee bit out of date... are we waiting for things to somewhat calm down to add to this? Otherwise I think a few 'recent events' need to be added to the docs...

But still, ontopic, I'd like a little more info on Teh SandL0rd of d00mednes5.

Yet I like the shroud of mystery surrounding him... so nevermind that last comment...

Everything you need to know about the SandLord can be summed up in two sentences:

1) I am the SandLord.

2) Th3 S@nd70rd 0wnz j00!!!

NO GODDAMN IC INFO YOU BLASTED COMMUNIST

The serious information I was going to give can be summed up in short order:

Listen to Gesht.
Yes. Read the thread if you want, or skip to page 7 and be dismissive.

Who is the Sandlord?

The coolest ruler of any of the existant civilizations. I'm being blatantly honest here. I love Red Storm. I seriously, truly do. I love Red Storm.

Rest well, sweet baby. I shall return, once my affair with the North has ended.
