Horns of Hashut Background Tables

Source: Rot and Ruin (out of print)

Single-minded and relentless destroyers, the Horns of Hashut hail from distant ash-wastes ruled over by a tyrannical deity whose only love is conquest.

The Horns of Hashut do not hail from one region, but are instead descended from those many human tribes crushed and annexed by the armies of the Father of Darkness. Their old names are cast aside, and they must earn a new one through constant toil and bloody sacrifice. Those who survive such a brutal existence know neither mercy nor fear of pain - no suffering can possibly compare to that which they have experienced at the hands of Hashut's cruel overseers.
