The Shavag Mountain Range spans a broad, lethal province of ice, stone, and abyssal valleys. Settlement is possible only in protected basins, tunneled refuges, and cliffbound holds that can be defended against storms and the cult's horrors. Theraposa Cryophilia and her offspring dominate the high routes, while frightened survivors cling to hidden paths, barter points, and old sanctuaries. The region is ideal for expedition play, siege drama, and survival horror.

Field Observations

Most routes are vertical and slow, even in clear weather.,Avalanches and web-traps make mapped roads unreliable.,Local guides and rope gear are often the difference between life and death.
