Inhabitants[]

Humans were rarely encountered among these mountains, other than members of the Red Tiger tribe and merchants traveling from Sundabar.[2] Dwarves often traveled through these mountains in search of the lost dwarf strongholds of Delzoun and would treat strangers with suspicion, fearing they may be treasure hunters.[3]

In terms of giants, this mountain range was inhabited by frost giants, verbeeg,[10] and fog giants.[3]

White dragons commonly vied for dominion in this region.[11]

Rumors & Legends[]
