Only those well versed in daemonic lore are aware of the Bloodthirster hierarchy. They are organized into eight hosts, ascending in power, prestige, and favour. Each Bloodthirster commands its own legions of daemons and possesses its own lethal skills. Underestimating even those of the eighth and weakest host is a fatal error; they are still greater daemons and far more powerful than any mortal warriors.{{Fn|13a}}
*First Host: These '''Exalted Bloodthirsters''' are the mightiest of their kind. Only eight of these mighty Daemons exist, and amonst their ranks are [[An'ggrath]], [[Ka'Bandha]], and [[Skarbrand]].{{Fn|21}}
*Third Host: The '''Wrath of Khorne''' are hero-hunters who seek out the mightiest heroes of the enemy and maim them in the name of Khorne.{{Fn|13a}} They wield a [[Bloodflail]] and an [[Axe of Khorne]].{{Fn|24}}*Sixth Host: '''Bloodthirsters of Insensate Rage''' are berserk destroyers who wield great axes as tall as castle's gate. Nothing can stand before them on the battlefield and daemons of Khorne are instinctively drawn on in their wake.{{Fn|13a}}They wield a [[Great Axe of Khorne]]{{Fn|24}}.*Eighth Host: '''Bloodthirsters of Unfettered Fury''' are skilled generals and command Khorne's daemonic legions in their attacks on real space. They are armed with the combination of axe an [[Axe of Khorne]] and whipa [[Lash of Khorne]].{{Fn|13a}}
