Randal, the Vandal is a Fallen Vandal located in the Forgotten Shore that appears as Reaver Vandal. Due to the Vandal's exceptional health, he caught early Destiny Beta players off guard and was then affectionately nicknamed "Randal" by the Destiny community.

He has since gone onto become the longest running Easter Egg within the Destiny series due to his ongoing reoccurrence.

History

Origins

The humble origins of Randal the Vandal can be traced back to the Destiny Alpha edition of the game where he is first seen idling near the northern cave of the Forgotten Shore alongside his trusted Shank. In the Alpha version, he appeared as a Level 8 "Elder Vandal" who had a significantly high health bar in comparison to the other enemies in the area.[1] However he was seen as an afterthought as players were power capped to Level 8 and stronger Level 11 enemies existed within the vicinity that took no incoming damage.
