Raven Rock
Town in The Spine of the World, Sword Coast North
Raven Rock is the ancestral mound of the Black Raven and Gray Wolf tribes of the Uthgardt, high in the Spine of the World and crowned by a huge stone raven.
A stone raven a hundred feet tall perches on the snowy plateaus, and below it a wolf-shaped hollow surrounds an altar carved with the phases of the moon.

Overview
The Uthgardt are the barbarian tribes of the North, each named after its totem animal and each keeping an ancestral mound: a sacred site where its dead are honoured and its rites are held.
Raven Rock lies in the cold heights of the Spine of the World, near the headwaters of the Black Raven River. A sculpture of a perched raven a hundred feet tall stands above the burial cairns, which also hold the war spoils of the Black Raven raiders, feared along the northern roads.
