Torogmar

Trapped between the frozen shores of the Bay of Desolation to the north and the Bleak Mountains to the south and cast lies the icy plain of Torogmar(S. "Troll Home;" La. Rumain Teurastajoiien Koti). The peaks and foothills of the Bleak Mountains are rife with the caverns and tunnel networks of Snow Trolls. The Ystävät Talven seldom venture into the area—few of those who have done so have ever returned.

The Snow Troll dwellings beneath the Bleak Mountains are barren, black holes of despair. The mountain range offers little for the Trolls to eat, and they continually raid eastward over the mountains into the Lakeland and southwards down the Fire Tundra as far as Rast Losnaeth. While they take fish, seals and sometimes even whales from the Bay of Desolation, the utter wasteland where they live limits their diet. The Snow Trolls live singly or in isolated pockets, separated from one another by miles of mountainside. However, many lairs have secret tunnels and passageways that snake far beneath the mountains and emerge at distant points near to other lairs. The Trolls band together only to raid Ystävä Talven settlements. They occasionally cooperate in the landing of a whale or the killing of a bear, but ordinarily live their lives apart. Anyone venturing into these caves finds trouble and little else.

While the Snow Trolls steal goods and small trinkets from their victims, the amount of treasure found in their caves is usually very small. On occasion, a Troll using the same cave for many centuries may amass quite a fortune in ivory—not stolen jewelry, but the tusks of the many walruses the Troll has Lumimiehet of the Talath Uichel devoured. The tusks can be found still attached to the skull and on the Troll's rubbish heap with innumerable other bones. On raids further south or from some unfortunate passing traveler a Troll may have captured a single precious or valuable item in his hoard, such as a necklace of gems or a magical sword.
