The Dark Riders of Acherus (also referred to simply as the Dark Riders)[1] are a sub-group of the Death Knights of Acherus and later the Knights of the Ebon Blade. They are led by Salanar the Horseman.[1]
They live in the Realm of Shadows. When a horse is sent there, they slay it and raise it as a deathcharger.[2]
The order is potentially old, as Dark Rider Ghrave has been described as "ancient".[3]
They have their own sigil.
