The Biker Horde are a nomadic group of vehicular marauders, which, as the name implies, consists predominantly of motorcycle-borne warriors. The Horde is led by Warlord Dementus. They appear in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and are mentioned in 2015's Mad Max video game.

History[]

The Biker Horde are a group of marauding bikers led by Dementus, a warlord of the Wasteland. Like other factions in the wastes, the bikers fight to take whatever resources they can.

It is apparent, from the events of Furiosa, that Dementus absorbs random groups. The Biker Horde attempted to bring in one such group, but there was conflict. Dementus and his horde easily chased this group to a cliff-side and captured them. Dementus made an offer to five of the remaining twenty. Those five who were willing to kill each other for a spot on a bike would live. This is how he came to acquire the ally known as "Mr. Norton."

It is also clear that there are sub-groups within the horde. For example, The Octoboss is the leader of a small faction, within the larger horde, known as the "Mortiflyers." At one point, when Dementus starts ordering on of Octoboss' men around, the man turns to Octoboss for orders. Dementus used Octoboss' men as canon fodder for a ploy to take Gastown. This caused a rift with the Mortiflyers and they, eventually, went rogue.

The Forty-Day Wasteland War[]

The exploits of Dementus and the Biker Horde bring them into conflict with another tyrant, Immortan Joe of "The Citadel."[1] Dementus uses his horde as and army to take Gastown. After some time, the pact Dementus made isn't sufficient to appease the horde. Losing groups to go their own way has caused problems for Dementus as they openly blamed him for their problems.

Seeing the only solution to his strife, Dementus seized the Bullet Farm as well. With two of the Three Fortresses of the Wasteland under his control the last was The Citadel. In his attempt to take the Citadel, Dementus sparked-off what would later be called "The Forty-Day Wasteland War" in which all but seven of the Biker Horde were killed.
