Star Mounts

Mountains in The High Forest

The Star Mounts are a forbidding range of peaks at the heart of the High Forest, wrapped in snow and ceaseless winds and hiding a secret valley.

Snowy spires rise above the endless forest, and winds strong enough to tear a griffon from the sky howl around them all year.

Overview

The Star Mounts rise in the centre of the High Forest and inspire many tales among the troubadours and woodsmen of the North. Snow and bad weather all year make climbing dangerous, and winds around the peaks are so fierce that only a dragon can approach them safely by air.

At their centre lies a high valley hidden from the world.
