}}{{NameSort}}{{character stub}}'''Makandal''' was a rebel, prophet, terrorist leader, magician, and messiah during the slave revolts in [[Hispaniola]]. He gained notoreity for his skill at using stolen [[French]] [[firearm]]s and organizing [[European]]-style training camps. He was captured and sentenced in [[1758]], but he claimed that no white authority could restrain him and, rather than dying, he would simply change form when burned on the stake. Indeed, as the fire consumed him, the stake unexpectedly collapsed; his followers took this as confirmation that he had become a ''[[loa]]''. Others have hypothesized that he died just as the world again intersected with the [[War in Heaven]], leaving him stranded at historical crossroads. It is doubtful that his body survived in any way, though charred fragments of his stake or skeleton were treasured in later years.
