The Hazards of Icewind Dale Content
To the untrained eye, Icewind Dale is a barren land where the greatest danger is being unprepared for the environment. In reality, the traveller must be vigilant for other unique dangers. An innocent cloud of fog, hanging in a gully where moist air contacted cold ground, could easily be the deadly Breath of Auril, a magical fog which will freeze a living creature in seconds.
Throughout the dale, goblins indiscriminately scratch sheltering holes and burrows, capped by small concealed doors, into any hollow and embankment. A single goblin is more than a pest, but a warren of many united goblins create serious ambush hazards for passersby. Similarly, a traveller must be wary approaching warm mud pools, and should never climb in, regardless of impending frostbite or hypothermia, for these are frequently troll puddles, stagnant mud holes favoured by trolls for their fetid dens.
Equally dreadful in appearance are Poison Shriekers, nightmarish mushroom creatures which look like a grotesque fusion of a sea anemone with a bloody eye. Any rapid approach triggers a blood curdling shriek, followed by a spray of fatally-poisonous spores. Hence, one must always be watchful, for regardless of how empty the land appears, it rarely is so.
