Hidebarks

The Hidebarks were a tribe located in Arizona.

Background
One of Legate Lanius' varying origin stories states that he was the greatest warrior of the Hidebarks. When the Legion found and surrounded the Hidebarks' camp, the chieftain chose to surrender. This enraged Lanius so much that he struck down the chieftain himself and began attacking his own tribe members.

Lanius killed 15 members of the tribe before he was rendered unconscious, his face being maimed in the process. Upon awakening, Caesar offered Lanius a helmet to conceal his ruined face and requested that he fight for the Legion. Lanius agreed on the condition that he be allowed to kill the surviving male members of the Hidebarks, though he was convinced by Caesar to kill the adult males only.
