Sunset Mountains

The Sunset Mountains are a pair of mountain ranges separated by the Far Hills, which are literally part of their chain. They form a high, almost impenetrable barrier between the Eastern and Western Heartlands as well as the eastern edge of Sunset Vale.

Inhabitants
These mountains are home to a large number of evil tribes and savage humanoids. Several small dwarven clans also live in this region. The dwarfs are very secretive about the exact location of their homes. Most of these dwarfs trade in the town of Easting. The other humanoids are the Yeti, Gnoll, Ogre and Drow races. One White dragon had been recorded in Sunset Mountain history.

Winds Walk
The main road to get to the Sunset Mountains. It usually a clear windy, dry, hot mountainous road. It usually clear from monsters.

Ice Caves
The Ice Caves are where the Yetis, Ogres and Gnolls normally live. Only through the occasion of the Dark Alliance did they spread to hound the Winds Walk and Mount Burning Eye. In the Ice Caves, there are the Displacer Beast species and their masters, Ice Giants. The white dragon Ciraxis had its lair in the Ice Caves and was the ruler of all trouble in Easting.

Mount Burning Eye
The highest mountain in the Sunset Mountains. Once Yetis, Ogres and Gnolls hounded the mountain and prevented the Dwarves of Easting to call for help. The Dwarves that did make it to the top were killed by a White Dragon. Will'o'Wisps and wolves occasionally stray onto the paths of the mountain.

Easting and the Dwarven Mines
A Dwarven Mining Camp village. It is a place where Dwarves come around and get together to trade once the signal fire on Mount Burning Eye is lit a certain way. Easting was almost destroyed by Drow who attacked during the Dark Alliance crisis, however, the Drow were trapped in the Dwarven Mines. The Drow were then defeated back to the Underdark and never bothered Easting again.
