WhiteTrucker
The first bandit on the server, who killed 9 people on the first day in Rathnir, looted from a few towns, and destroyed spawn beds.

TheRealJay2
The first notable bandit, started raiding in late September before the Turtle Wars. He would show up at a town and demand payment or else he would kill and raid them. Notably raided Urnu-Arrak and killed all in a 5v1, escaping the rest. He attacked many other towns and successfully killed and extorted money from them. His attack on the village Sticks was his first unsuccessful attempt, and he was driven out. Yimmu-Audal originally paid TheRealJay2 off, then hired him as a privateer, and then incorporated him as the empire's Supreme Military Commander. He settled down at this point.

Dagonashibal
Bandit who raided a few towns preceding the Turtle Wars, bought stolen loot, and messed with the nether highway.

HesVinnie & HesWinnie
A Goblin Bandit duo which has been the longest running operation in the game. A few towns have built functional walls to protect from the goblin brothers, as they have raided several towns, killed many players, and even spawned a wither on the city of Carvay.
