The Tribe of The Caribou was one of four ancient tribes of Skraelingmen which lived within the arctic expanses of The Vale of Everwinter. Each tribe expressed a unique relationship to various wild creatures found within the Forests of Frostfall, which they hunted and slowly formed bonds with over many decades. The Caribou Tribe was a nomadic tribe of skilled marksmen hunters which followed the migratory herds of Caribou that travelled across the wide expanses of The Vale of Everwinter. Tribesmen within the Caribou Tribe were known to adorn in the antlered skulls of the Caribou which they hunted in their lives, which to them symbolized respect to the herd creatures, and a symbol of a members coming of age in performing a successful hunt. Ruling over the tribe was the large bellied and loud mouthed Staaghorn Elkhardt who acts as chieftain over the nomadic tribe of Caribou Tribesmen. Noticing a significant decrease in their main food source, the Caribou, in recent years Staaghorn began resorting to more devilish means of providing for his people, hoping that frequent sacrifices to Borealis may appease their plight due to the effects of her wintery aura on the lands. Selecting one from his tribe every month to abandon within the Forests of Frostfall, he believed that this ritualistic sacrifice would bring better fortune to his people.
