🏰 Fortresses (3)

Frostveil Hold (Capital Fortress)

The heart of Frostvein Hold, Frostveil Hold is a colossal citadel of blue-white stone and glacial ice, its walls threaded with ancient runes that glow softly beneath moonlight. Built into a frozen mountainside, it guards the deepest passes of the north and houses the High Runelord and the ancestral vaults.

Icewatch Bastion

A remote fortress perched on a wind-scoured ridge, overlooking frozen tundra and ancient migration routes. Icewatch Bastion serves as an early-warning post against invasion and monstrous incursions from the wastes.

Glacierfall Redoubt

Carved directly into a calving glacier, this fortress shifts slowly over decades. Glacierfall Redoubt protects sacred ice forges and stores relics entombed in eternal frost.

🌾 Farms (2)

Frostvein agriculture relies on cold-resistant methods and subterranean heat.

Rimefield Enclave

A sheltered valley where rune-warmed soil allows the growth of frost grains and pale root crops. Rimefield Enclave is vital to sustaining both Frostveil Hold and passing Skyrend allies.

Snowbarrow Pastures

A wide, windswept pasture where thick-furred livestock graze beneath watchtowers. Snowbarrow Pastures supplies meat, hides, and bone to the holdfasts.

🏘 Villages (2)

Hearthglow

A stone village clustered around geothermal vents, providing warmth, fresh water, and refuge for travelers. Hearthglow is known for its welcoming halls and rune-smith families.

Whitepass

A fortified village guarding a narrow mountain pass. Whitepass serves as a trade and toll point between Frostvein Hold and the Skyrend Clans, and is often the first line of defense in times of war.
