The Tribe of the Auric Horn is a confederation of barbarians found amidst the forests of the Northeast, ranging along the upper reaches of the River of Golden Branches and the region beneath and east of the [[Shandir Woods]] and [[Gossamer Stockade]]. They favour fighting on the ground rather than in the branches, and are both potent and merciless in combat.

The Tribe’s legends name the Sun in the sky as the Auric Horn, ruling the world from unscaleable heights, each day sounding out an eternal challenge which must be met. To free the world from suffering, the Tribe believes, the Auric Horn must be silenced, snuffed out. To both new-Exalted Solars and elder monks of the Immaculate Order, such belief is blasphemy, and the Tribe has few allies amongst neighbouring kingdoms or Creation’s deities. But they remain a powerful force in the depths of the Northeast due to their strange customs and sources of power.

The Tribe has a true hatred for the Exalted, operating on an almost instinctual level and caring not for Celestial or Terrestrial ranking. The great secret of the Tribe is a strange ability to sense when an Exalted Charm is used within their line of sight. Once a member of the Tribe has spotted an Exalt, it will almost always be overcome with frenzy, filled with desire to destroy that being immediately.

allowing them to pinpoint the location of the Charm-user and certainty of their Exalted status.
This is a perfect effect, and disregards all mundane and supernatural effects for disguise or
concealment (unless they are perfect defenses against detection).

The Tribe has a number of traditions which those few observers who have seen them have sometimes identified as initiation into the Terrestrial Martial Arts… perhaps an Exalt in the woods has been taken by surprise when a horde of barbaric warriors suddenly demonstrate Charms of their own, but if this has ever been the case no Exalt has survived and passed the tale on to the rest of Creation. A more observable consequence has been the hesitation of other forest tribes to challenge the Tribe of the Auric Horn in battle unless pushed on by desperation or the rise of a great champion within their ranks.

The Tribe of the Auric Horn has a particular relation to the [[Goldwood]]. In their stories, it is a place where the Auric Horn set foot upon the ground and the Tribe struck it a great blow, spilling its blood into the soil. By tradition, the golden conifer needles of the Goldwood are a symbol of the Tribe, gathered to serve as ornaments and in the rituals of tribal shamans. The Tribe does not occupy any territory, including the [[Goldwood]], but if anyone else attempts to settle their sacred site the tribe gathers for war, refusing to cease its attacks until they have departed.
