When Ner'zhul chose to reforge the Horde after Doomhammer's defeat on Azeroth, Fenris pledged his Thunderlords to the cause. Fenris accompanied Teron Gorefiend to Blackrock Mountain in Azeroth. Teron then sent Fenris and Tagar Spinebreaker to the Broken Isles. Newly aided with Deathwing, the two orc chieftains were transported to Menethil Harbor by Sabellian. Later on, Fenris accompanied Tagar Spinebreaker on a swift mission to the Tomb of Sargeras, where they slew a demon and claimed the Jeweled Scepter of Sargeras. Fenris gave the scepter to Gorefiend and fell back into line fighting for the reforged Horde.[4]

In the alternate timeline on Draenor, Fenris, as chieftain of the Thunderlord clan, and the clan were invited by Grommash Hellscream to join the Iron Horde. Fenris and his clan accepted Hellscream's offer, but when his father Garad and the Frostwolf clan refused, he was ordered by Grom to kill his father. After killing his father, his younger brother Durotan took the mantle as chieftain of the Frostwolf clan.
When the Thunderlord clan prepared to attack the Frostwolf orcs by using cannons supplied by the Iron Horde to devastating effect, Ga'nar lead a raid on the Thunderlords, killing his sons Hatock, Grotan, & Skal in the process. After being pursued by Lokra and Asha, he is later confronted by his two brothers in The Thunder's Hall. Here, he reveals himself, as the two of them had been unaware that the Iron Wolf was their brother. Claiming that he always knew they would reunite one day, he enters the fray along with his rylak, Chilltongue, and is killed.
