Which Rand

[Durinax]

Darth rand and Rand Sedai are equally awesome in my books.

Sit down at a table, preparing to play the other persons game... Then punch the bitch right flush in the face

 

Dark Rand for sure.

 

I LOVED when he balefired the entire tower and i got chills when Lews Therin screamed "ITS HIM."

 

In fact i'm getting a nerdgasm just remembering it hahahah

 

That said, Rand Sedai is pretty G too. Reading him just nonchalantly strolling into the White Tower and having a chat with good old Eggs was classic as was his pwnage of Cadsuane...

I liked Hard Rand. I really empathized with the guy, at that stage in his development he's still fundamentally a good guy, trying to do the right thing, reluctant to hurt people. Yet he's faced with these decisions that flay his soul, he has to kill those loyal to him at times and manipulate people that he cares for. And throughout all this, he's also isolating himself and pushing away anyone who could serve as a crutch and support while believing that he's going mad, with that voice in his head.

 

It's honestly very sad, which I don't mind, because I think too many books and movies are very happy-go-lucky and optimistic.

 

Dark Rand is a close second. That dude was bad-ass.

Rand Sedai, purely for his awesomeness in Maradon and his setting down of Cadsuane.

 

I hope people do start calling him Rand Sedai in the next book lol.

Sheepherder Rand is my favorite, as he was the classic "young hero" archetype. I loved the sequence of him and Mat making their way to Caemlyn.
