Mountain

Open full article on the wiki

The Mountain is a biome which features frozen snow-covered peaks framed with Fir trees. This frozen and unforgiving region is home to Wolves and other sons of Fenrir. Drakes, the offspring of Moder, can be found in the skies, making their nests at its peaks where they lay their Dragon eggs. Beware shifting piles of stone, which signal the stirring of a Stone Golem.

Mountains can also contain frost caves, which are a dungeon home to Cultists and their pet Ulv. Bats also make their home here and can startle unsuspecting Vikings. Crystals can be found growing naturally on the walls and occasionally contain a large underground lake. Be careful not to wake the Stone Golem that can also be resting there.

Going into the mountain biome will cause the Freezing effect on the player. This effect can be negated by drinking Frost resistance mead, wearing a lox cape, a wolf fur cape, a fenris coat, a feather cape, or wearing the wolf armor chest. The wolf armor legs do not offer frost resistance. This effect is also negated by nearby campfires.
