Randol Yorke

First President of the Federation

The flip side of Roland, Randol declared independence from the Empire, when he realised he could no longer cope with Roland’s way of doing things. Since then, there has been more or less continuous conflict between the two, and Randol was the first god to have his name written in black.

He set up shop in America, and was president of the Federation. He got re-elected every five years. His government is so bent, it is said that a corkscrew is used to draw straight lines, yet a thriving broken economy and structure exist there, enough that they are still fighting after several hundred years of war with the Empire. Perhaps this is because Randol doesn’t use religion, but rules directly and personally. He also delegates authority through a power structure rather than through closed priesthoods. Either way, he’s still there, and so is the Federation.

Somewhat to everyone’s surprise, on the spring equinox of the year 760, it was announced that Randol had passed away after a long illness. The Vice President quickly called a new election, and was successful in his election campaign. However, he is not thought to be a deity.
