The Relentless Horde was made up of the Wegwiur, Chakyik, and mixed Baklunish and Oeridian groups displaced by the conquests of the Brazen Horde in the early fourth century CY.

History

After being displaced by the Brazen Horde, the Relentless horde moved from the southern plains of the Baklunish Basin through the Fals Gap. Around 320 CY, they cut off the Quaglands and Arn from the Great Kingdom of Aerdy, challenging the Rovers of the Barrens for dominance of the northern steppes. At its peak, the empire of the Relentless Horde stretched all the way to the Griff Mountains, though they lost the territory east of the Fellreev Forest to the Rovers within the lifetime of their first Kha-Khan.

In 345 CY the leader of the Relentless Horde, Kha-Khan Ogobanuk, died, and the ilkhan of the Tiger Nomads split from the Horde to form his own nation, the Chakyik. As the other half of the horde, the Wegwiur still call themselves the Relentless Horde to this day, believing themselves the true heirs to its power and might.
