Frostpines
Tall, snow-covered trees that can survive in the frozen wilderness. Their bark is dense and resistant to the cold, and their sap can be used to make energy-rich extracts. These trees are often found in the more temperate zones of Enkenia, where the landscape is modified to allow growth.
-
Iceblooms
Crystal-like flowers that grow in the frigid environments. These blooms are rare and only thrive near the modified infrastructure that regulates temperature. Their petals are translucent and shimmer in the sunlight, but they hold no warmth, often freezing any animal that comes into contact with them. They’re prized in Enkenia for their use in cold-resistant medicine.
-
Glacial Ferns
These ferns grow along the edges of frozen lakes or rivers, their fronds designed to survive extreme cold. While they don’t provide much in terms of food, their roots are harvested for their ability to store and absorb ice, which is vital in the planet’s more remote regions.
-
Shivergrass
A hardy grass that grows even in the most frigid areas. It sways gently even in the coldest winds, yet its stalks are tough enough to be used for clothing and makeshift shelters. Shivergrass is also known to emit a faint glow at night, acting as a guide for travelers in the dark, frozen wastes.
-
Frost Wolves
Agile, large predators adapted to the cold of Enkenia. Their fur is thick and white, allowing them to blend seamlessly into their surroundings. They are known to form packs and often hunt in the ice plains. These wolves are highly territorial, and their howls echo across the frozen wastes, striking fear into anyone who ventures too deep.
-
Frostfangs
They can generate and manipulate ice with their breath and claws, using their frost abilities to freeze their prey and the environment around them. Their breath can create blizzards in short bursts, and they use it to build frozen nests in the high mountains.Territorial and solitary by nature, these creatures are known to fiercely defend their territory. They thrive in the most brutal of cold environments, where no other predators can compete. They make their homes in high, jagged mountain ranges, often carving out large caverns in the ice where they retreat to rest and hibernate during the harshest winters.
-
Cryo-Mammoths
Massive, woolly beasts that roam the ice fields, often used by the local populations as beasts of burden. These creatures are domesticated for their strength and size, pulling large sleds and providing resources like wool and meat. While their fur is thick and protective, they are known to be docile and friendly toward their handlers.
-
Frost Raptors
These are bird-like creatures that soar high above the icy terrain, their wingspan allowing them to glide on the frigid winds. They hunt in packs, diving down with incredible speed to capture smaller prey. The Frost Raptors’ feathers are a pale blue and have been used for insulation in the more remote settlements.
