Thunder Peaks

Mountains in Cormyr · Airmbult ("Storm-Fangs")

The Thunder Peaks are a north–south range on the eastern edge of Cormyr, lashed by sudden storms all year and home to goblin and orc raiders.

Thunder rolls without warning over the ridges, and smoke rises from the camps of raiders watching the roads below.

Overview

The Thunder Peaks mark the eastern edge of Cormyr and suffer severe, sudden storms throughout the year. Orc and goblin tribes raid from them into Cormyr, Sembia and the Dalelands, and the dracolich Aurgloroasa, the Sibilant Shade, lairs in them.

The range once held the dwarven settlement of Thunderholme. The Thunder River flows west from it to the Wyvernwater.
