Rodoth Isles

The Rodoth Isles is the most northern continent, consisting of one main island and 3 smaller islands. The isles were unsettled until about 150 years ago. This was due to fact the climate too harsh for people who would want to settle there. This changed when the famous explorer Barroth Moore went to explore the Rodoth Isles. He helped map out most of the shorelines. His discovery of plentiful valuable metals such as gold and silver started the migration of miners wanted to find their fortunes. The Regions of Taroth have all established prison camps on the isles which have gained a reputation for being the toughest place to go serve a sentence. Taroth prisoners are often sent the prison camps to mine for valuable metals.

The Rodoth Isles have no real governing system other than the prison guards that watch over the mining operations & the Brittlebush plantations set up by Taroth & Otarin. This makes the isles a favored location for criminals.

Notable Locations
 * Moore's Icefall

Geography
The southern part of the main island is mostly flatlands and grassy foothills. The northern part is a very rocky and mountainous arctic tundra.

Climate
The climate in the Rodoth Isles is cold almost yearlong. During the summer there is a short period of warmth allowing for wild grasses, wild flowers and shrubs to grow. The treeline ends just north of Moore's Icefall

Ecology
The valuable healing plant Brittlebush can be found only here. Boreal forest can be found on the very southern shores of the isles. North of this, the only tree found is the bristlecone pine tree. The only animals found here are mice, rabbits, foxes, owls, bears,& seals
