Foederatus ( in English; pl. foederati ) is a Latin word whose definition and usage drifted in the time between the early Roman Republic and the end of the Western Roman Empire. Early in the history of the Roman Republic, a foederatus identified one of the tribes bound by treaty (foedus ), who were neither Roman colonies nor beneficiaries of Roman citizenship (civitas) but were expected to provide a contingent of fighting men when trouble arose, thus were allies. The Latini tribe were considered blood allies, but the rest were federates or socii.

- The Foederati were not added to his armies until late into the God Wars. They were Zamorak's forward troops used during the 3rd Age. They consisted of mainly Necromancers and their undead, some of which were Wights. At first, Zamorak was hesitant to use them, as the undead tend to lower troop morale, however as he began to lose the war, and was pushed further in to Forinthry, he allowed his followers to use more and more. During the introduction of their use, there was 1 wight for every ten undead in his army. This number dramatically increased as the wars went on.
