Frost Folk

The Frost Folk is the self-given name for the people who live in the lands beyond the Border, still on the continent of Aqoris but beyond the northern borderlands of the Kingdom of Aqoris. The name they employ makes reference to the lands they live in which is always in some degree of Winter. The people of the Kingdom of Aqoris refer to the Frost Folk derogatorily as "barbarians" and "Feral Men".
The Domainlands under House Boyce united the lands south of the Border, and formed the Kingdom of Aqoris, eventually defeating the Frost Folk Clans in what is now the Borderlands. The Clans there have largely become a hybrid culture of Aqorisi and Frost Folk - The Bordermen, however some still retain deep Dawnmen heritage.
== Clans ==
At the start of A Shattered Realm, the Frost Folk are divided into about 100 different clans or tribes, some of which have long been bitter enemies with each other. These clans are are socially and culturally very different. Many understand Aqorisian spoken south of the Border, though a great number speak the Old Tongue of the Dawn Men and various variations of that. Some of these clans or groups include:
* The Nalds, who dwell in a valley north of the Frostfingers, who know how to forge bronze weaponry and have a relatively feudal way of living.
* The Ponns, cannibals who reside in the Frostfingers, known for wearing the skin of their enemy as cloaks.
* Frostarrow Clans, are a group of clans that reside along the Frostarrow river northeast of the Border.
* Icemen
