A regional sweep of polar peaks and blue glaciers spanning roughly one hundred miles, the Wyvern Frost Mountains are a realm of constant winter where passes, mines, and strongholds define power. Settlements cling to lee slopes and riverbeds, and trade moves along frozen arteries between guildholds. The Citadel of Wyrmhold now harbors an oathbreaker named Traven Gloomfrost and an ancient white dragon called Zyta, drawing both fear and opportunists to the range.
