Red Hand of Tyr

"I am a son of Lordaeron. I have spent years in hiding. I have seen my kingdom betrayed. My neighbors have been slaughtered. My own family has been turned against me. I have witnessed stitched horrors dragging themselves across the hills I once called home. I have heard the wails of dying children as they are brutally torn apart, and I have seen the horrible light in their eyes that sparks once they fall. But after all of it, all these years, I dare say this, and no more: I have never been so terrified of anything as I was the blacksmith’s wife."

- Unknown, Former Member of the Red Hand Short-lived and never numbering in more than the double digits, the Red Hand of Tyr was a loose-knit band of fanatics following a proto-Scarlet ideology in the years 25 and 26 LC. Believing in the visions of evangelists such as Katherine Pike, the Red Hand perpetrated small-scale attacks against the Scourge and human survivors alike in order to test their victims' "purity." The Red Hand's numbers quickly dwindled due to their small numbers and internal purging, and the few survivors followed their leader into the Hand of the Unblinded, an elite sect of the Scarlet Crusade. A member of the Red Hand self-identified by a bloody handprint over their heart, placed upon their clothing after proof of their priority is ascertained.
