Radegast was the first of the Iron Lords, and was responsible for assembling the motley crew that would rise to the renown all [[Guardian]]s know. Originally, the four man team of himself, [[Perun]], [[Jolder]], and [[Saladin Forge]] fought against the Warlords in secret, living in fear of that other Guardians would destroy them. Eventually, he had a particularly brutal battle against five enemy Warlords, resulting in the devastation of the surrounding area. After this battle, Radegast became weary of [[Guardians]] fighting and fearing one another, and expressed his desire to see them unite as protectors of humanity, like the knights that existed long before the [[Golden Age]]. Radegast then had his friends name of wielders of the [[Light]] they trusted to ride with them; Jolder named [[Bretomart]], Perun named [[Deidris]], but Saladin did not trust anyone other than Radegast. He then called on them to gather those they trust to fight the Warlords out in the open, calling on them to join him as Iron Lords, coining the name for the first time. Everyone present agreed without hesitation.<ref name="Lord Radegast>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Iron_Lords#Lord_Radegast|Lord Radegast]]''</ref>

Eventually the Lords ended the reign of the Warlords and established peace in the world. Seeking to restore civilization, the now great organization of the Lords of Iron sought out [[SIVA]]. When the search bore fruit, Radegast was one of the many Iron Lords who went into the what would later be named the [[Plaguelands]]. Of all that went in, Radegast was one of the eight to meet their end in the SIVA replication chamber, containing SIVA at the cost of their lives.
As the Iron Lords expanded their ranks, Lord [[Timur]] informed Radegast that the Warlord [[Felwinter]] was interested in joining the Iron Lords. Radegast and Timur were interested in using [[Felwinter Peak]] as their headquarters due to its defensible position, but were also intrigued by Felwinter's interest in the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]], as Timur himself was seeking the technology known as [[SIVA]] to aid in the building of [[The Last City]]. The two Iron Lords met with Felwinter, but Radegast found himself unnerved by the [[Exo]]'s seeming lack of emotion. Radegast questioned him about his interest in Rasputin as well as the civilians who lived below his peak in a small village before asking if he would give up his peak to the Iron Lords. Felwinter would only do so if his people were guaranteed the protection of the Iron Lords. Hearing this care for his people, Radegast gave Felwinter a small smile and welcomed him into the Iron Lords, stating that he needed to meet Saladin and learn how his people could go to the Last City.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/3/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Worthy]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Liar#THE_IRON_LORD|The Liar - THE IRON LORD]]''</ref>
