The Band of the Red Hand

There's an ad on the telly that keeps coming on!! It starts by saying: BB BB BB BB BB And then it continues to say the same thing but with a few words in between this time, but not many. I wasn't paying attention to the telly!!! But it kept saying my naaaaaame!

It should be here at any moment now...

Is that really you??!?!

Happy birthday to the horse-mad cav Nya! (I guess that's appropriate...) Plane Tickets for you! To sydeny, but you can catch a bus to the far superior Brisbane! And a horse doll to keep you company when you are away from your horses! And ginger beer to drink, because it's so awesome. And a horse cake!

So...I've always been amazed with how much music is in the Wheel of Time. There's Jak o' the Shadows, wash the spears, and many other songs mentioned that have different words depending on where you are. This made me think of a project for myself. I'm thinking I'm going to write melodies for them. I'll definitely do Jak o' the Shadows and Wash the Spears. Are there any others listed that have words in the books? What do you guys think?

I'm tired of typing out my name and crap for the dice games. Someone make me a stamp. Don't have it be too big. Have some dice and the hand print on it. Christine and Dice Master or Game Master or something on it. And Infantry CG. You know, make it flashy or something. Points for trying, more points for the victor. and... go.

Hello, new member here... Just wondering if anyone here has heard the song Madness by muse. I disliked it the first time I heard it but soon realized that it was really in tune with a hidden tone from the WoT books. Would love to see some cosplayers act out the song with a wheel of time spin to it. I; I can't get these memories out of my mind; And some kind of madness has started to evolve (Rand/Lews Therrin) I; I tried so hard to let you go; But some kind of madness is swallowing me whole, yeah (Rand's list of all the women he let die) I have finally seen the light; And I have finally realised what you mean; And now I need to know is this real love; Or is it j…

Basically what it says, the Aussies and I has been having a very funny convo with song titles, so watch and learn! XD \ - So basically you just include at least one song title in your sentence! (And it does have to make sense, you reply to the person in front of you) - Please bold your song titles, and capitalize them Keep it....fun....but PG please. :P But I can prolly leave that Unsaid :P

So this is my finished project for Audio class. My friends and I saw that PETA was trying to sue Nintendo over Pokemon cause its "Teaching children to abuse animals" So we being smart arses of the class. Decided to make PSA to make fun of them lol. The best thing we could come up with was the ASPCA's commercials lol. So we made one :P This is it.... We had one guy in class. Who is a very synical jerk most of the time, he came upto us after the presentation and gave us each a dollar saying that was his donation :P And that we were horrible people but the video was very awesome.... we used the the money to spring for Little Caesars for lunch cause all 5 of us had pretty…

Howdy Nicana and welcome to the Band of the Red Hand!!!! I hope you enjoy your time here! I'm Katiora or Kati, or Kat or whatever for that matter, and I'm the Undercommander of the Band. Jea, our illustrious, wonderful, intelligent leader should be along shortly (btw if you ever need to butter her up flattery helps, but you didn't hear it from me ) She will send you in to get you added so you can see our private boards. Also there should be some people here shortly to welcome you and will start trying to persuade you to join their regiment, be sure to take your time in choosing! They are all a lot of fun! Until then you can feel free to join in our book discussion or a…

While they may not have a direct connection to the band, I feel they play a big part in the formation of the band. So I thought this would be a fun topic to discus for this months discussion. Please remember that not everyone has finished the books yet, so if you think it will be a spoiler use the spoiler tags. Also please don't post any AMoL spoilers. So please enjoy the discussion and share your thoughts on them or maybe even share what you would ask/wish fore if you want! I love the finns! I've always enjoyed when they were in the books. I mean who wouldn't? You get to have some questions answered and you can wish for some things. It's like having two genie…

If you have any questions for Brandon Sanderson and/or Harriet post them here. I can ask them for you when I meet them at the signing and go out to dinner with them on the 8th. You can also pm me your questions, which will be easier for me to check. I'll check Dragonmount at night on the 7th. Will be meeting him on the 8th. If there is anything you've been dying to have asked please let me know.

Sadness is having finished the final book in my beloved Wheel of Time series. My eyes started to get a little moist as I read the last line in the book. I couldn't help it so I reread it over and over again before closing the cover. I won't put any spoilers here as spoilers do not belong. What does belong is how this book affected me. I first picked up the wheel of time series at my local library in 2004. I don't remember how I found it, but it was there. I'm pretty sure it was by accident. I was poor, didn't have hardly enough money for anything other than rice, was working to put myself through grad school, and was looking for something new to read that wasn't Jacks…

Throughout the month of January, the Aiel will be hosting a Culture Fair!!! This month will be focused on the music of various cultures. The different booths will discuss the place that music had in their respective cultures in the past, as well as how the music has changed and evolved over time, and what it is now. Everyone is welcome to join us, explore the threads, participate in discussions, play games, and perhaps even host your own booth!!! The event will begin on January 6th and run throughout the month. If you are interested in hosting a booth, please PM me which which culture you'd like to represent and I'll give you the run down on what you'll be expected to d…

Hey Rand! Welcome to the Band of the Red Hand!!!! Jea or someone will be getting your permissions turned in soon, so until then feel free to post where you can see. We have a new discussion about the Finns you could join in. Or you could talk about and share your favorite music. So feel free to hang out until you can see thr private boards *passes Rand a Guinny* Cheers!!

Ok so the principle of the game is you say a quote and the next person has to guess what WoT character its from then put a quote themselves and so on I'll start with an easy on I'm no bloody hero!

Twas a bittersweet first christmas for the hubby and I, but he was very happy to see his mom and step dad and grandma despite it being at the passing of his wonderful grandpa. I've been watching posts here and will spend the next couple of days getting caught back up so, yippee, but yep, made it back home to KC, MO from E Tennessee!!

Hi there time! Welcome to the Band of the Red Hand!!!! Jea or someone will be getting your permissions turned in soon, so until then feel free to post where you can see. In a few days we will have a new discussion on the books or stop in the Pink Loincloth for a few free drinks! Also you could share some of your favorite music with the rest of us. Also be sure to sign up for training for the dice game. Its rather fun! If you have any questions feel free to ask around and I'm sure someone will promptly answer them. *passes time a Guinny* Cheers!!

Happy New Year everyone! Hoping everyone is ready for an awesome 2013! I know I am! Ready for a positive change after the events in RL over the last couple of weeks!

What'd I miss? I tried to come on to post a LOA, but DM was being all skittish, and now I see a notice about malicious bots and whatnot. Was everything on the fritz for a long time? I'm also happy to report that school is over for the term, and I got a B+, B-, and A-. Normally not anything to write home about, but at my school, grades are adjusted so that D- starts at 70% instead of 60%, so if not for a gracious instructor's rounding up, my 85% would have only been a C+. Not as bad as an 88% D my dad once got in a graded curve in an engineering class... Also, for the record, graduate school is harder than I thought it would be. I only got a half-chapter read of Ko…

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas all! *mixes up bandy with spices and sets it out as punch along with the nommies* And a special greeting from my own cavalry too:

Okee, so I've seen similar thing happen as one of the tasks at the BT, but why now have our own version? Basically, I post a song here in the first post, together with my first lyric line/pic, and then people take turns posting a picture representing the next sentence in the song...make sense? No? I've done the first verse to show ya's how: Current song: Hey Jude by The Beatles <3 Lyrics (those done will be crossed out): Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better. Remember to let her into your heart, Then you can start to make it better. Hey Jude, don't be afraid. You were made to go out and get her. The minute you let her under…

I've been trying desperately and daily for the past week but no matter what I did, my comp told me DM was inaccessible even while I was getting notifications you all were still posting. So, no worries, I'm still here and very much alive (despite doing my best to avoid the flu virus going around school and having to stay home sick on Thursday from a sinus infection....)

I want to know why you aren't playing the Dice Game. What's up? Why isn't everyone playing?!

I must apologize for my unannounced LOA i'm afraid i've been extremely ill with some kind of evil stomach bug. I do apologize.. I am still going to be LOA for at least the remainder of the weekend, but HOPEFULLY should be back Monday or Tuesday at the latest... I was told not to push myself too hard or i'd end up back in the hospital, which I am trying to avoid lol. Jea can get a hold of me if there is any emergency that ya'll need me for. I shall be back soon! Katiora

So since we are all a fun loving bunch. I wanted to ask you all what your favorite game is? It could be video game, card game, board game, or heck even a drinking game. I love all games! I don't really have any experience with drinking games. I would say my favorite game is Magic The Gathering. However I am game for and game. (sorry about the pun)

All throughout the first two books, all I thought whenever we saw Mat was "oh my god, what trouble is he going to cause now?!" He took a dagger from Shadar Logoth, blew the Horn of Valere, and went to meet the Fins... twice. And even though the signs were all there (which we all later look at and say oooohhhhh), I was still convinced that Mat was going to constantly cause problems for Rand, just like I believed Perrin was a "filler character". When the battle with the Shaido is about to begin at Cairhein, and Mat knows how to lead the battle, it should have been a huge clue. It took until he is trying to run away and runs into the Cairhein army, and he says some…
