Whitefang Farm Valley
A mountain-locked valley of terraced fields and carefully kept traditions.
- Size
- Hamlet or village
A Whitefang farm valley may be a hamlet or village, isolated by mountains, weather, and local custom. It survives on terraced fields, barley, lentils, goats, sheep, milk, meat, fine wool, timber, and trade with other valleys, mammoth herders, or monasteries.
Each valley can carry its own feature or taboo: proximity to the Howling Curse, dark ice homes, a local bhoka, unusual weapons, strange dances, pacifism, or warrior practice.
