The Glacies, the most up north in all of Njorria. Njorria is home to the Ice Dragons, Wolves, Yetis, Bigfoot and the Glacies Trolls

It's blistering temperatures aren't for the faint hearted. It's covered in thick snow, ice and caves. The hottest temperature The Glacies has seen is -12C (10.4F) Degrees. Winter is the harshest, dropping as low as -40C.

Those who can brave the temperatures are blessed with the view of all of Njorria and a secret entrance to the waterfall, where if you're strong enough, you can fight the currents and feel the icy water running through your fur (or scales!)

The smallest mountains are easily bigger than Earth's Mount Everest

It's always snowing, or hailing.. and avalanches are a constant, but, those who live in The Glacies are stubborn and like the cold.. as odd as it is.

Those down south, in warmer climates, call them mad and make up crazy theoriesas to why they stay; they're scared of heat, their bodies can't handle the switch, or most of them just say it's because they're used to the cold and are unphased by it. which is the only true rumour ever made about the residents of The Glacies.

Ironically, The Glacies isn't protected by The Dragons, they're protected by the Wolves and the Yetis. See, The Ice Dragons are actually herbivores who prefer to feast on nuts, like squirrels.

Bigfoot is hardly ever seen since Bellum Territorium; the huge war which invoked the biomes to be split and guarded. Some say he's hiding, some say dead, but the Yetis know he's just in his cave, hibernating, but, they've sworn secrecy for his safety. There used to be hundred of Bigfoot's kind, but they all got slaughtered in the bloody war, leaving just him.


THE CREATURES

The Ice Dragons - The Ice Dragons are one of the more docile and weak species' in The Glacies, which has ended in their near extinction from The Fire Dragons. They're herbivorous creatures with very little defence mechanisms, evolution didn't work well for them. They have 2 talons on their wings and talons on their feet, and their ice breath does nothing to the much larger species'.

They like to eat nuts and hibernate most of the years, hidden in small caves under snow. They mate for life and live in pairs, their young head off at aged two, maturing age for them.

The Wolves - The Wolves are the second strongest species in The Glacies, with their larger than average bodies, sharp teeth and thick coats, they managed to evolve well into killing machines. Carnivorous animals who have a soft spot for Ice Dragons, as they are small and cute, not even big enough for a snack.

Their favourite food is The Glacies Trolls, perfect taste and perfect size for snacking or a full meal, depending on age. They travel in packs and their young leave at aged 4, after being taught to hunt and kill, they go off to start their own pack.

The Glacies Trolls - The Glacies Trolls breed like bunnies, there are thousands of them yet they are still considered prey for literally anything that eats meat. they can shoot ice from their hands but that never helps if there is more than one predator hunting them. They live like bunnies, underground in burrows with their entire families.

They are herbivores, eating the berries on the outskirts of The Glacies to live. Most of them actually dig their burrows out near the outskirts, which isn't recommended considering they live next door to The Ingles, a place no outsider wants to be.

The Yetis - The Yetis are the most dangerous species in The Glacies, keeping The Fire Dragons out of The Glacies as much as they can, but they can't fly like they can. They have advanced abilites; strength, speed, hearing and eyesight.

Despite their strength, they are herbivores. They eat from the pine trees littered around The Glacies, they eat the pine needles, as painful as that sounds, they've adapted to it and it doesnt hurt them. Yetis live and travel alone, coming across a mate once a year to keep their species going.

Bigfoot - Bigfoot would be the strongest, if he'd ever leave his cave and if his species didn't die out. Bigfoot is known as a coward, he's afraid of his species going extinct so he is 'preserving himself' in his cave, as he says to the yetis that stumble across him.

He eats snow, which is rather convenient considering it surrounds him in every direction.
