Biomes of the frozen Earth
After the Shattering broke the Moon, an endless winter buried the world in ice and snow. Permafrost spans a wide, sandbox map of frozen terrain, each biome with its own hazards, weather and ruins to scavenge. This gazetteer profiles them, marked expected where the full map is not yet public.
