Crystalmist Mountains
The Crystalmist Mountains are the highest of the mountain ranges in the Flanaess. They divide the Flanaess from the Baklunish West. The Hellfurnaces are the heavily volcanic southern portion of the same range.
Ecology and inhabitants
Natives of the Crystalmist Mountains include frost, hill, and mountain giants, goblins, ogres, orcs, trolls, bugbears, white dragons, mountain lions, woolly mammoths, woolly rhinoceroses, and giant wolverines.[1]
There are crystalline hive-entities known as crystalmists. It's inconclusive whether the mountains are named for the creatures, or vice versa.[2]
Mountain dwarves mine these mountains for precious metals and gems, trading them with humans on both sides of the range. There are also groups of cave-dwelling people and tribal groups scattered throughout the Crystalmists.
Features and settlements
The Davish River begins at a strange glacier of astounding size where the Crystalmists meet the Jotens.
