The Sabres, also known as The Sabre Clan was one of only two clans known to have existed prior to the release of RuneScape in 2001 (the other being 'The' Clan), making them the first and oldest clan of RuneScape. Reknowned for their Honour and ARPK stance, TS and WG shared three alliances over the course of their history.

First Alliance

WG, TS and The Synergy in a bronze war, December 2004.

9 December 2003 - 2004

Only a few hours after WG's formation on 6 December 2003, Mortus Sabre posted a reply to the clan's recruitment topic on the Rune Village fansite's forums. His Lordship remembers it to be similar to:

Finally, a clan with morals. You have the support of the Sabres.

Unsure what the post implied, His Lordship took the opportunity to request an alliance. TS became WG's first ally on 9 December 2003. WG would also subsequently join The Federation, a syndicate of clans (including TS) which shared similar principles of Honour and ARPKing.

The first alliance lasted until sometime in late 2004, when an internal crisis led to TS ending all alliances, including WG's. However, TS did take part in a bronze war with WG and The Synergy prior to WG's first Anniversary. They also fought in the five-way iron war on day 7 of the Anniversary itself, alongside The Synergy, WG, Fear and Legends Legion.
