As an organized group, they were referred to as the [[Sythegore Arm]]. Notable Raiders in the Sythegore Arm included the first [[Warchief]], [[Blackhand the Destroyer]], as well as his two sons, [[Rend]] and [[Maim]]. |

The majority of the remaining wolf-riders were sent back to [[Draenor]], where they fell under the dominion of [[Fenris the Hunter]] and the [[Thunderlord Clan]]. By the beginning of the [[Second War]], Raiders were extremely rare within the ranks of the Horde armies. |

Riders of the darkwolves, the savage warriors used the speed and ferocity of their mounts to make themselves a deadly enemy.
