Winterstorm

Winterstorm is a large, and primarily mountainous region of the Kingdom of the New Sigil. Winterstorm is located on the border of the Valley of the Calm Trees, bordering on the Range of Elders. Winterstorm, as its name implies, is covered in a perpetual layer of snow. Legends say that Winterstorm used to never have this snow, but that some disaster changed the weather patterns of this region. Winterstorm is primarily wilderness, providing vast forests and mountain ranges to explore. There are two settlements in Winterstorm, one being a small village called Mountain Watch and the other a large city called Winterstorm, the namesake of the region.
==History==
Winterstorm used to be a vastly forested, and temperate region, hosting warm summers and brief, harsh winters. Winterstorm has not always been called such, it's true name lost in the mists of time, but legends surround the region. It is said, during the time of the New Kingdoms sundering from Outhria, a Great Being purged the land with fire. This event caused severe shifts in the land scapes and weather patterns of the New Kingdom, but Winterstorm was hit the hardest. For reasons unknown, after the fire purged the lands, Winterstorm has been covered in a layer of snow, never melting, but never gaining in height, it stays at exactly the same height, regardless of the temperature. Prior to the fire, the only settlement in Winterstorm was the small village called Mountain Watch, a small village who guarded the passage into the neighbouring valley from invaders. After the fire, many survivors made their way into Winterstorm, only to find the village over filled with peoples, these peoples set out to build a new city, and thus was born Winterstorm. Later on, the name Winterstorm stuck with the zone, and it became known as it is now.
==Geography==
Since Winterstorm borders on a tall mountain range, the landscape is primarily mountains, but a few flat plains are situated further away from the mountains. In Winterstorm, the average temperature stays around -5° Celsius, never going lower than -10°, even in extreme weather. Much of the region, mountains and plains alike, are vastly forested, giving the whole zone a rugged and wild look.
