The Frost Folk are a race of humans that long ago struck a bargain with a cold power.[1]

Contents

Physical characteristicsEdit

Frost Folk have the height and weight of typical humans.[1] They often have bright blue eyes, pale, snowy skin, and blonde hair so pale as to almost white.[2] A noticeable chill surrounds them.[1]

AbilitiesEdit

Frost Folk are immune to the effects of cold. They have darkvision and innate snowsight. From their left eye a Frost Folk can produce a cone of icy mist to blast the area in front of them.[1]

CultureEdit

Frost Folk often raid to the far south in dark, cold winters and take plunder and captives.[3] They are disciplined fighters with a keen sense of tactics. They enjoy bloody slaughter and often set ambushes.[1]

HistoryEdit

Frost Folk were originally humans from Sossal[3] (and are thus said to be distant relations of the modern Sossrim[2]) and trace their origin to the war between Raumathar and Narfell. Many from Sossal allied themselves with the Raumathari and sought power from the "cold outer darkness" (i.e., ice devils). And so the Frost Folk were born.[3]

Relations with other racesEdit

Frost Folk are known as Siksin Neneweth to the Vil Adanrath, Aikulen to the Damarans and Shen Ghel to the Tuigan.[4]

HomelandsEdit

Frost Folk are found in the northern Hordelands[4] and dwell farther north in the endless ice.[3]
