Cave Spite Tribe

The Spiters are a cave-dwelling tribe consisting of a mix between diamond dogs and unicorns. Overtly hostile, the Spiters will attack just about anyone who comes close to their territory. They inhabit the cave systems in the mountains south of Equestria. Little is known about this tribe, at the moment.

Culture
Cave Spite culture is largely a mystery to the Equestrians. All they know is that the diamond dogs and unicorns coexist and that they domesticate giant spiders native to the caves.

Language
The Spiters speak two different languages, the ponies speak Es-sesan while the dogs speak Reedish. This seemed to have developed separately from Equentish.

Economy
Spiters trade with gems but rarely trade with outside tribes.

Foreign Policy
Complete hostility. No one is allowed in their territory. They rarely extend outside their own territory.

Government
Unknown.

Technology
Spiters use strange metals known as Cold Iron. It remains cold in any temperature, and cleaves ethereal beings when used as a weapon. No one has been inside the cave systems, so little else is known about their technology.
