The Aurochs Ritual Beast first manifests in the Red Rising Saga within the brutal landscape of Dark Age as a towering albino aurochs bearing twisted horns, embodying the primal mysticism of Obsidian culture amid interstellar war. Employed in sacred rituals, the creature undergoes precise ceremonial slaughter where its skull is split and organs incinerated internally, transforming it from a wild beast into a vessel of spiritual power and ancestral invocation.
