The Uttermost North, also known as the Utter North, was a freezing region of Toril that spanned across the northern-most regions of the continent of Faerûn. It was nearly entirely inhospitable, with only a scattering of humanoid societies and places of note.[2]
Geography[]
From the perspective of the people of the North, the Utter North comprised all the lands north of the Spine of the World mountains.[2] While it did include this area, it extended far to the north and east, encompassing the glaciers north of the Anauroch desert.[3]
Geographic Features[]
The predominant feature of the Uttermost North was the vast frozen wasteland of the Endless Ice Sea.[4] There were only a few scattered points of interest found throughout the region, and some of those only existed as mere rumor or legend.[2]
Notable Locations[]
