"Filthy human, you will die like all your kind!"

—Raider^[2]

Raiders are a common enemy encountered in the Warrior Within.

Official Description

"Built from the remains of hapless pirates and merchants lured to the Island of Time. Raiders are mostly common fodder for the Empress' army. These simple sand creatures are not particularly dangerous on their own; however, it is rare to encounter a lone Raider, as they often travel in packs. On some occasions, they are joined by the more powerful Keepers and Executioners."

—Official Booklet Description^[1]

Biography

Along with Keepers, these warriors make up the bulk of the Empress of Time's Sand army. They appear as large men dressed in red robes and bear the island's symbol on their back. They protect the fortress, and attempt to bar trespassers entrance to the Fortress of Time. They often attack the Prince in groups. They are trained swordsmen and can break the Prince's guard in three swift attacks.^[2]

The Raiders are first encountered in one of towers of the Fortress: The Mechanical Tower, Garden and Water Tower, where the Prince must unlock mechanism keeping the Throne Room doors closed.

Gameplay

Strategy

Raiders are capable of pulling off sophisticated and synchronized battle tactics against the player. They will surround the player and attack from multiple directions at the same time. Raiders are capable pulling off a three-hit combo that deplete the players lifebar if given the opportunity. However, their weakness lies in their reaction time. When the raider attempts to strike the player with kick, players can avoid Raider's attacking by parrying or blocking.

When surrounded by pack of Raiders, using combos like Azad's Retaliation and Rage of Darius will knock them all down, especially if wielding a mace that has the capability knock the enemies to the floor.

 ==Official Description==
-{{Quote|Raiders are fierce warriors, capable of devastatingly powerful attacks. However, their combat skill is offset by remnants of their self-serving personalities. They are often too busy seeking approval from their superiors (Executioners) and berating their subordinates to function effectively.

-Raiders are skull-helmed [[sand creatures]] that wear heavy armor. They wield the axe known as the [[Aposa Axe]] and attack the [[Prince (Sands of Time)|Prince]] in groups. Raiders are able to wield a varying array of large weaponry.
+Along with [[Keeper]]s, these warriors make up the bulk of the [[Empress of Time]]'s [[Sand Creatures|Sand army]]. They appear as large men dressed in red robes and bear the island's symbol on their back. They protect the fortress, and attempt to bar trespassers entrance to the [[Fortress of Time]].

+The Raiders are first encountered in one of towers of the Fortress: The Mechanical Tower, Garden and Water Tower, where the Prince must unlock mechanism keeping the Throne Room doors closed.
-The Raiders were commanded by [[Shahdee]], who was sent by ship to attack and kill the Prince before he could arrive to the [[Island of Time]] to kill [[Kaileena]]. Following the failure of their mission, Raiders are largely located on the the Beach and the Cliffs of the Island of Time. They are later encountered throughout the [[Fortress of Time]].
 ==Gameplay==
 ===Strategy===
-Raiders are slow on account of their heavy armor, which can be used to the advantage of the player during combat with the Prince. However, Raiders can knock a player down and kill them in one hit if the opportunity presents itself. In addition, they are high in stamina and their armor makes it hard for the player to wear them down.
+Raiders are capable of pulling off sophisticated and synchronized battle tactics against the player. They will surround the player and attack from multiple directions at the same time. Raiders are capable pulling off a three-hit combo that deplete the players [[lifebar]] if given the opportunity. However, their weakness lies in their reaction time. When the raider attempts to strike the player with kick, players can avoid Raider's attacking by parrying or blocking.
-Raidersdo not block and their attacks are easy for the player to avoid. However, it is rare for one to encounter a single raider as they are often fought in packs and are usually accompanied by [[Executioners]].
+When surrounded by pack of Raiders, using combos like [[Azad's Retaliation]] and [[Rage of Darius]] will knock them all down, especially if wielding a mace that has the capability knock the enemies to the floor.
-Later in the game, they are especially easy to kill if the player has the [[Scorpion Sword]] or the [[Water Sword]]. The Raiders normally make shrieking noises as soon as they see you, either to notify the other Raiders nearby. During combat, they taunt the Prince as he approaches on occasion. They are the weakest enemies in the game, aside from [[Crow]]s.
