As Modgud confronted the enemy warriors, she used her powers to strike fear into their hearts.
Thaurissan and his sorceress wife, Modgud, launched a two-pronged assault against both Ironforge and Grim Batol. Thaurissan and his Dark Irons vowed revenge against the Ironforge dwarves and Wildhammers. Thaurissan, leader of the Dark Iron clan, and his Dark Irons vowed revenge against Ironforge, founding their own kingdom, named for the Sorcerer-Thane, Thaurissan, in the northern Redridge Mountains. Khardros and his Wildhammer warriors traveled north and founded their own kingdom within the distant peak of Grim Batol, establishing a holdfast that would come to rival even Ironforge. The Wildhammer clan was unsuccessful in wresting control of Ironforge, with Madoran Bronzebeard and his clan claiming the city as their own and declaring himself king. After Modimus died, a civil war broke out between the Bronzebeard clan, the Wildhammer clan, and the Dark Iron clan for control of the kingdom. They were one of the three great factions of dwarves under High King Modimus Anvilmar, controlling the strongest mountaineers that Khaz Modan had to offer. Just prior to the War of the Three Hammers, the Wildhammer clan, ruled by Thane Khardros Wildhammer, inhabited the foothills and crags around the base of Ironforge. Like all dwarves, the Wildhammer are descendants of the earthen. The clan is led by High Thane Falstad Wildhammer, who represents the Wildhammer people on the Council of Three Hammers within Ironforge. They are renowned gryphon riders, and lead the Wildhammer dwarves as a whole. Now part of the Alliance, they hold the Horde as enemies. The Wildhammer clan (or clan Wildhammer) is a dwarf clan currently centered mainly in the Hinterlands and the Twilight Highlands although members can be found in Kalimdor and Outland as well.
