A Frost Giant wearing the skin of a Polar Bear[2]
The Polar Bear lives in the frozen lands north of the Icefinger Mountains in Allansia, particularly near the coast and on the southern edges of the Ice Wastes and the Frozen Plateau.[3] Polar Bears are have also been recorded living on the Cragspider Islands and Diamond Islands of Northern Titan. [4]
Origins and Distribution[]
Little is known of these powerful, snow-white Bears as they are rarely encountered in the sparsely populated lands of the north. At least some of the peoples of the lands to the south are aware of their existence, however, since ivory carvings of Polar Bears are occasionally seen in the markets of larger cities such as Port Blacksand.[5]
Although Polar Bears are one of the mightiest creatures of the frozen ice wastes, they share their home with other, more powerful creatures, and the Frost Giants north of the Icefinger Mountains hunt the bears in order to wear their skins.[6] [4] Northern Barbarians, by contrast, hold that the Polar Bear is sacred, an emissary of Gurrang the Bear God, and they keep ivory statues of Polar Bears as protection against their attacks.[4]
