Located in the frigid northern wastelands of the Frost, the kingdom of Nordia is composed of many walled keeps. Nordia lies inbetween the Valenar Forest, home to the Valenar Elves, and the Roskel Mountains, where orc and bugbear tribes dominate the few paths leading through the treacherous moutains. Due to its position, overground trade to the kingdom is practically imposible so the economy is supported by the underground trade route leading to the dwarven lands of Durham.
