Sea of Moving Ice

The Sea of Moving Ice, also referred to as the Floating Land by the Reghedmen barbarians, was a collection of icebergs and frost-covered isles that floated in the waters of northwest Faerûn.

Geography
The Sea of Moving Ice was located west of Icewind Dale and northwest of the Cold Run.

Geographical Features
Almost completely uncharted, the ice masses set wide enough apart for a ship to pass. The ice of the sea changed so that all but the most experienced seafarers could be caught off guard. Proof of such are a collection of ancient ice-locked ships.

Notable Locations

 * Settlements:
 * Blac Ice Tower: This lone spire was home to the Ice Witch, Hedrun Arnsfirth.
 * Karffbadh: Encased in ice, this frost giant settlement was once one of the four great cities of the Jhothûn empire.
 * Oyaviggaton: This iceberg was claimed by the dragon Arauthator.
 * Svardborg: Hidden among the ice bergs was an ancient frost giant village that was reclaimed in the late 15 century DR.

Inhabitants
Along with seals, walruses and polar bears, the Sea of Moving Ice was also home to other dangers. Lairs of ice trolls could be found in errant shipwrecks and white dragons often made home within larger icebergs.

Few humans made their home among the icy bergs. Among the few that did were the nomadic Ice Hunter tribes.

Rumors & Legends
A portal in the Sea of Moving Ice led to the High Ice in north Faerûn. It was protected by the orc druid Thurghom.

While the majority of the Reghedmen tribes believed the bergs of the "Floating Land" to be forbidden, the Tribe of the Seal once attempted to settle its isles.
