Ice Hell

 is a monster-infested region of ice and snow found directly north of the Andaro desert. A glacier, Scholars theorize it was extended from its original size by rampant magical energies. Its inhabitants are the harmless ice fox, the large mammoths and a few mammal and bird species adapted to the cold. The region is also known amongst explorers for its monsters, frost trolls, ice wolves, ice wraiths, snow bears, Snowy sabre cats, Wispmothers and a single tribe of especially savage orsimer have been documented as living in the region as well as frost dragons. Despite it being an obvious place for frost giants to lair, no true giant has entered the region since a tribe of frost giants attempted to enslave the local dragon population, getting themselves completely wiped out in the process.

There is also a region in Ice Hell known as the pits. This is where volcanic vents spew their hot gases out and create a warm, dry oasis of sorts in the midst of the frozen glacier. Nord and Orc miners are continually mounting expeditions to this area to mine the rumoured rich veins of ores in the Caverns located beneath the Pits.
