Mark Zonder (born 16 April 1958) is the drummer of American heavy-metal band Warlord. When the band was in a hiatus, he joined Fates Warning. His artistic name in Warlord is "Thunder Child". He also has his own band Slavior.

He also plays drums on Joacim Cans' solo-project album "Beyond The Gates", and with Kevin Moore's band Chroma Key. He has also worked with Gary Hughes and the rest of the band Ten on their studio album named Stormwarning, which was released in early 2011. He has also collaborated to a classic metal project called Dramatica, featuring Dennis Murcia and Diego Ramirez of Texas early 90's metal band Decadence, and Mark Boals and Michael Vescera from Yngwie Malmsteen fame. The project is due out in the fall 2015.
