The White Mountains are a snow covered rocky mountain range located at the start of the 4th Hextant and which create a natural land barrier on the continent of Nustrun to all those headed west on the trail of the controllers.
Overview
The White Mountains are series of granite and shale mountains three hundred miles wide and eight hundred miles long that border the land of Venodor, as well as the Great Sea, through which passes the trail of the controllers, creating a natural obstacle for all those who try to cross them. The culture of the mountains is a mixture of Appalachian and Bavarian cultures, and is protected by The Wolves of Ratinar, as well as Maul Ratinar himself. The mountains themselves are very sparsely populated, and dotted with a series of small towns and villages scattered along the main trail and in other areas beyond that. Unique features of this mountain range is the numerous valleys within its borders, as well as a vast and dangerous swamp known locally as The Deadly Slews. Travel through the mountains is dangerous and difficult at the best of times, and nigh on impossible at the worst. The mountains get their name from the snow that so often covers the peaks and the tops of the tallest hills for a large percentage of the year.
