The Crags

Hills in Sword Coast North · the Crag Mountains

The Crags are a stretch of hills, broken mounds and mountains on the Sword Coast North, once mined and now home to monsters.

Flattened steppes and mounds rise like a stitched wound into true mountains, pocked with the mouths of dead mines.
