History of Warlords

The Warlords are a group named in the flavor text of the Iron Forerunner Cloak, a Legendary Iron Banner Hunter cloak from Season of the Lost. The cloak's text has Lord Saladin recall that the Iron Lords "crushed the Warlords beneath our heel so that they may never rise again."

The Warlords are the foes the Iron Lords defeated in that memory, which places them in the setting of Iron Lord history rather than in a current enemy faction. Saladin's memory is recorded in the Iron Forerunner Suit, which is sold by Lord Saladin through the Iron Banner.
