Redwaters

The southernmost lake of Icewind Dale is, by many accounts, the most beautiful. Belying its name, the waters of the lake are emerald green in the morning and sparkling silver at twilight. Unlike Maer Dualdon, which is beset by fleets of fishing boats, or Lac Dinneshere, which is blasted by frigid winds coming off the tundra, Redwaters is a peaceful lake, plied only by a handful of rowboats that glide across the surface like swans with their young.
Redwaters is not without its dangers, though. The most remote of the three lakes, it is visited infrequently by caravans and other traders, so basic supplies can be hard to come by here. Considering how little wealth trickles into the area, sellswords and fortune-seekers rarely visit Redwaters. As a result, the wilds teem with the kinds of monstrous beasts that elsewhere would fall to an adventurer’s blade.
During the winter, when the lake freezes over, food becomes scarce. Unlike the deeper waters of Maer Dualdon and Lac Dinneshere, Redwaters freezes early and thick, making the fishing season shorter and ice fishing impossible in midwinter.
