Woodhorn was not born with half a wooden horn. The name "Woodhorn" was given to him because, when he was younger, half of his horn looked to be made of wood.

A long time ago, Woodhorn and his younger brother, Driftwood, were visiting Earth. A human hunter spotted them in the woods they were traveling in. After a long pursuit, Driftwood was killed and Woodhorn lay injured, unconscious, with half his horn broken off. A friendly woodcarver found him and nursed his wounds, attaching a stake he'd carved to where the horn was broken. The magic left in the half-horn caused the pieces to fuse together, creating the half-wooden horn he has today.

During Woodhorn's recovery, the hunter who had killed his brother found him at the woodcarver's cottage. The woodcarver tried to get the hunter to leave, but he refused. Woodhorn tried to protect the man who'd saved his life, but the hunter killed him, and, in self-defense, Woodhorn killed the hunter. He returned to Alnilam and vowed to never trust humans again and took it upon himself to guard the Gateways, lest one set foot on the planet and harm anyone on it.

He is able to sense whenever someone comes through a Gate and can appear there in less than a minute. He has -- though he doesn't know it -- a passive ability to create a Gateway if one is needed and isn't available.
