Ghenghiz Cohen's Silver Horde
Roster [X2] Norse

The Silver Horde
A group of barbarian heroes, featured in Interesting Times and The Last Hero, who see Cohen as their leader. Their name is a play on the Golden Horde. Its members are Truckle the Uncivil, Boy Willie, Caleb the Ripper, Mad Hamish, Old Vincent (ironic in that all of the Horde are old), and Mr. Ronald Saveloy (geography teacher turned barbarian adventurer), or, as the Horde call him, Teach. They are rumoured to be "the legendary Seven Indestructible Sages", previously unheard of, but "Perhaps legends have to start somewhere"[1].

In Interesting Times, The Silver Horde aid Cohen in his invasion of the Agatean Empire in an effort to steal something, which is hinted at but not revealed until the end to be the Empire itself. They also have a hand in overthrowing the current Emperor (a cruel tyrant who isn't "simply at Death's door but well inside the hallway, admiring the carpet and commenting on the hatstand"[1]). A main point of the plot is Teach's attempt to civilise the Horde, a difficult task since "every one of them saw a book as either a lavatorial accessory or a set of portable firelighters and thought that hygiene was a greeting"[1].

With Cohen crowned Emperor, the Horde live like royalty, all except Teach, who dies in the final battle of the novel after proving his barbarian credentials beyond all doubt with a rage that amazed even his cohorts.

As of The Last Hero, Old Vincent is also dead, having choked on a cucumber (or possibly a concubine — there's some confusion on this point in the dialogue). The Horde set off to return fire to the gods in a glorious last adventure, but eventually realize that this would destroy the Disc and, it is implied (if not explicitly stated) that they give their lives to save everyone else.

It is unsure if the Horde actually die in rescuing the world from destruction. They hurled themselves and a massive explosive device off of a frozen mountain cliff, and once the blast had cleared, Valkyries arrived, with the intent of collecting fallen heroes and taking them to a glorious afterlife of drinking and fighting. However, the Horde suddenly rose up from the snow and stole the Valkyries' flying horses, deciding that they were bored with the Discworld and that it was time to explore other worlds. When asked whether or not they were truly dead, Cohen stated that they didn't think they were dead, so why should they care what anyone else thought? They never had before[3].
