Team ABRN (pronounced "Auburn") is a team of students from Haven Academy in Mistral. It consists of Arslan Altan, Bolin Hori, Reese Chloris, and Nadir Shiko. Team ABRN fought against Team RWBY during a match of the Vytal Festival tournament.
They play a key role in killing a large Nevermore at the beginning of the Battle of Beacon. In RWBY: After the Fall, Velvet Scarlatina states the team was observed defeating a Death Stalker later in the same battle.
As shown in RWBY: Before the Dawn, ABRN has transferred to Shade Academy following the Battle of Haven. They are one of the two teams to transfer to Shade after Haven was closed following Lionheart's death. With Theodore confirmed eight new arrivals being ABRN and SSSN from Haven.
