They are usually not a formal team so much as a pool of resources available to Skeletor, so that he might have one or more of them aiding him on a particular mission. Collectively the Evil Warriors share a healthy fear of their occasional master and a lust for the power they hope to gain in his employ. However, many of them have also pursued their own independent agendas, sometimes in treacherous defiance of Skeletor. Their goals would often come into conflict with He-Man and the Heroic Warriors.
