Legendary group: Dark, vast and relentless. The hordes of Vishna-Ghrim have always comprised the bulk of the army of darkness.Within its ranks are myriad of skills from mere beginners to masters of swordmanship and tactics. Their relative lack of mobility is offset by heavy weaponry and strict dicipline which makes most Vishna-Ghrims excellent formation soldiers, naturally adept at holding or gaining ground against strong oponents. Although initially they where willing to fight alongside others but as a rule did not accept strangers into their midst, they have changed their policy and welcome all newcomers.

Legendary group: Not so numerous as Vishna-Ghrim but what it lacks in numbers it makes good in prowess and stamina. Has times and again (despite shabby appearance) been the most decisive group amidst the armies of light. Excellent heavy scirmishers with intimate knowledge of the terrain. Relatively high average skill level (only a few unskilled or mediocre fighters). Joyful and enthusiastic in their approach they are always willing to accept anyone into their group.

Legendary group: Immensely Illuminated Brotherhood is a strange mixture of absurd humor (derived from popular culture) and exceptional tactical skills. They have, since their appearance, been instrumental to the host of light as strategists and heavy support unit. IIB is the one group who has possibly best achieved the melding between a battle game and classical role playing, being both effective in combat but keeping in character at the same time. They are comprised mostly of adult players, with tons of gaming/fighting experience. As a group they usually fulfill the role of heavy infantry but sometimes split up into smaller, lighter, teams as well.

Name: Ran Throqût.
Host: Darkness.
Largest number of members: 40
Country of origin: Estonia
Events attended: 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019
Description: The Uruks are the people who are born near the so called Battlefield. Their looks differ by regions: green-skinned, brown-skinned or black with their faces sculpted in grotesque ways by the chaos, that is their nature and battle scars that are proof of their wild ways. By serving The Darkness in the depths of their cave fortresses and wild evil forests, their communities have spread into clans, who tirelessly fight among themselves. Once in a while some individuals arise stronger, bigger and cleverer than most other uruk clanleaders and unite some of the clans into a Horde but they eventually disperse after the fall of the chief. But every year witches and shamans call out the arrival of the Nordic Equinox and all clan feuds will be on hold to answer the call of the Ran Throqût and serve in The Dark one’s Horde as it has always been in the past.

Legendary group: The Orcs of Nordic Equinox are a special group who tied the back-story of their whole being with the world of Nordic Equinox, even though they are players, not NPC's. They do take part in scenarios, but they are first and foremost a roleplaying group. They where also the first to erect their camp in-game and in the Wild Zone. Ran Throqût is a large and quickly evolving group that consists of few older and experienced players (the "Uruks") and a lot of youngsters ("the Goblins" or "Snagas"). In true goblin fashion they are not overly strong or brave individually, rather preferring to daunt their enemies and flee. But they get emboldened in large groups and if also whipped into frenzy by the Uruks, can overwhelm opponents by sheer numbers. They are also a constant menace and nuisance to any lone travelers in the Wild Zone at night. Many adventures have ended in torment and death in the slave pits of the Orc Camp. They are also learning and getting more cunning from year to year.

Name: Corvus Corax.
Host: Darkness.
Largest number of members: 11
Country of origin: Estonia
Events attended: 2015, 2016, 2017
Description: A century ago a huge army of demons rose from the underworld, ready to do battle upon a terrible enemy. They set out, lead by prince Malphas. The mysterious foe however was far more cunning and powerful than the demons expected. Although after years of fighting the demons prevailed, the victory came at a heavy cost. Most of the demons where dead, only Malphas with his entourage still remained. In his rage and grief he incinerated all vanquished foes completely, until no trace of their existence remained. Malphas felt dishonored. Although the enemy was utterly destroyed only a handful of demons remained of the vast army. He decided to restore his honor by fighting on the ground, until a century has passed from his war. The prince gathered all demons who had not yet succumbed to their wounds and started looking for battles. After a while he realized that he had too few fighters and he recruited some lower demons. None of the demons who fought in the great war, blame Malphas for the loss. His high morale was what ultimately gained victory for the demons. The prince trusts his soldiers completely, however he has some doubts about the new recruits.
