'''Warlords''' were various [[Guardian|Risen]] who used their [[Traveler]]-gifted mastery of the [[Light]] to establish a patchwork of petty kingdoms on [[Earth]] during the [[Dark Age]] and early [[City Age]], before the establishment of the [[Vanguard]]. These were Guardians in only the loosest sense of the term; the people and villages whom they protected with their powers were forced to pay tribute to them, and failing to submit resulted in harsh punishments. The Warlords were never united under a single banner and frequently fought among themselves over territory. | '''Warlords''' were various [[Guardian|Risen]] who used their [[Traveler]]-gifted mastery of the [[Light]] to establish a patchwork of petty kingdoms on [[Earth]] during the [[Dark Age]] and early [[City Age]], before the establishment of the [[Vanguard]].

Some Warlords, such as [[Felwinter]], eventually joined the Iron Lords, but most met a grimmer fate: defeat and execution made permanent by the destruction of their [[Ghost]]s. | The era of the Warlords came to an end with the advent of the [[Iron Lords]], an alliance of Guardians dedicated to ending their reign of tyranny and bloodshed.
