Twisted Hairs

The Twisted Hair is a tribe from the former Arizona.

Background
The Twisted Hair tribe was one of the most domineering tribes in the Arizona wasteland. They would regularly raid their neighbors for food, supplies, and slaves. They were merciless in their efforts and the other tribes had begun to fear even the mention of their name. It was during the reign of the Twisted Hairs that Caesar's Legion had risen up. The Legion taught the tribes to fight back and the Twisted Hairs were soon driven from their lands. Weakened and on the retreat, the Twisted Hairs were then set upon by the Legion and destroyed. No one was spared, but one woman managed to escape. The only survivor of this massacre was the to-be tribal "goddess" Hecate. She established a female tribe and religious organization named Daughters of Hecate and subordinated a male tribe and raider organization named Hounds of Hecate (former Vipers). Hecate hated Caesar and wanted to wipe out Caesar's agents in the area. Her plan was simple. When the tribes were weak enough, her Hounds would sweep down upon them and annihilate them from the face of the earth. She was determined that the same would come to pass with Caesar and his Legion.

Once a powerful tribe in Arizona, the Twisted Hair forged an alliance with Caesar in the early days of his Legion to act as scouts for him during his conquest of that state. Once the Legion had secured victory Caesar promptly rewarded their aid by breaking the alliance and betraying them; conquering and enslaving them as he had done to all the other tribes of Arizona. Their tribal identity was erased and those that resisted were crucified along the sides of Interstate 40.
