Isles of Ice

To the North of the The First Island across the Northern Seas are the Isles of Ice. A land that is difficult for the large wooden sailing ships of the First Island to navigate due to the glaciers and ice flows. This series of islands are rules by a series of lords and kings that seem to constantly be at war with each other. In desperate times the peoples of the Isles of Ice have been known to send ships south to raid, particularly long the Lodoss cost. This has given them a fearsome reputation though if outsiders do arrive most villages give a warm welcome and respite from the cold. Even further north of the Isles of Ice are the unmapped wastes, a land of great and nearly impassable ice sheets.
These islands are mostly inhabited by Human, Goliath, Mountain Dwarves, and Orcs. Less common races include: Air Genasi, Loxodon, Shifters, Dragonborn, and Firblog.

Geography

Mountainous with vast fjords breaking up the cliffs. Tiga plains and valleys rest between the rocks and the freezing ocean. Great glaciers and ice flows block passage for boats between many of the islands but allow for foot travel.
