- "We do not do that to each other! We're Ravagers! We have a code!"
"Yeah, and that code is steal from everybody." - ―Yondu Udonta and Peter Quill[src]
Yondu Ravager Clan was one of the hundred clans of the Ravagers. Distinguished by their crimson garbs, this clan was lead by Yondu Udonta until the mutiny led by Taserface.
History
The Ravagers were led by Yondu Udonta and were affiliated with Ego who was ordering Udonta to track down his children and deliver them to Ego.[1]
Kidnapping of Peter Quill
- "Yeah, Quill turned out okay. It's probably good we didn't deliver him to his dad like we was hired to do."
"Yeah, that guy was a jackass." - ―Yondu Udonta and Kraglin Obfonteri[src]
In 1988, they abducted Peter Quill to return him to his father, but neglected to do so.[2]
Hunting Down Star-Lord
- "Put a bounty on him! Forty K. But I want him back alive."
"Yeah, Cap."
"Alive?"
"That's what I said." - ―Yondu Udonta, Kraglin Obfonteri and Horuz[src]
The Ravagers on Morag
In 2014, Quill went to Morag and stole an Orb that the Ravagers were hired to receive for a third party, double-crossing the other Ravagers to sell the Orb himself.[2]
A Questionable Partnership

- "You betrayed me! Steal my money! When I picked you up as a kid, these boys wanted to eat you. They ain’t never tasted Terran before. I saved your life!"
"Oh, will you shut up about that? God! Twenty years, you’ve been throwing that in my face, like it’s some great thing, not eating me!" - ―Yondu Udonta and Star-Lord[src]
On Knowhere, the Ravagers eventually found Quill, and he turned himself in to them. Quill negotiated a deal with Yondu to hand over the Orb in exchange for help to stop a Kree terrorist called Ronan the Accuser from using the Orb to destroy Xandar.[2]
Battle of Xandar
Tha Ravagers defending Xandar
On Xandar, numerous M-ships went to fight Ronan's forces, and Yondu was shot down. Quill and his team, known as the Guardians of the Galaxy, managed to win the fight against Ronan while many of the Ravagers were preoccupied with Ronan's forces.
Afterwards, Quill pretended to give Yondu the Orb but secretly swapped it with a Troll Doll. Yondu Udonta and Kraglin Obfonteri later discussed that it was a good thing they did not give Quill to Ego as they were hired to do.[2]

Suddenly, the Sovereign people arrived and hired Yondu to locate the Guardians and bring them to them for one million Units.

End of the Yondu Clan
- "You're weak and stupid! It's time for the Ravagers to rise once again to glory with a new captain: Taserface!"
- ―Taserface to Yondu Udonta[src]
On the Eclector, Taserface declared himself as the new leader of the Yondu Ravager Clan and executed those who were still loyal to Yondu Udonta. Nebula convinced the hand Yondu and Rocket Raccoon to the Kree Empire. However, with the help of Groot and Kraglin Obfonteri, the two were freed and killed all of the Ravagers onboard. Before the ship exploded, Taserface delivered the location of Yondu to the Sovereign people.
