Ebon
A frozen and deadly frontier shrouded in mystery, Ebon is an uninhabitable arctic wasteland filled with ancient evils, societal outcasts, and otherworldly abominations. A land where mortals succumb to brutal cold or become food for tyrants and monsters, very few people have braved the chilly continent and even fewer have returned to tell their terrifying stories. Mortals are not welcome on Ebon, and every inch of the continent exists to remind those souls who would trespass.
Ebon is a continent so cold that plant and animal life cannot grow there; the inhabitants of the land resort to using one another as the primary food source. Seemingly absent of any true landmarks, Ebon is an open wasteland of frozen fields and bottomless icy crevasses.

History
The heart of evil on Dromaria, Ebon was the home and seat of power for the god Ishkul and the ancient terror Ignatius the Cold. These two exiled Upiryrials combined their might to create an army of frozen monsters. Reinforced by the dragons fleeing the mainlands and the Covenant, the duo launched a campaign against the world, plunging it into an ice age, forever known as the Age of Horror. Only twice in Dromaria's history has there been records of mortals walking Ebon: the tritons who planted the Worldtree deep in the seas beneath the mainland, were the first to glimpse the coming horrors from the wastes. The second instance was the great ride on Ebon, where Lothor and Asir fell while defeating the sinister duo. Mortals have avoided the frozen land since, with the dragons who rebel against the Covenant and monstrous remnants from ages past making up the majority of the population.

Ignatius the Cold
As time has passed, the lore surrounding both Ishkul and Ignatius has grown. While Ishkul is often portrayed as a deity, Ignatius stands in stark contrast, remembered merely as a man who broke the world. Referenced in Lothoren and Summertide religious texts, history paints him as a conqueror, tyrant, and villain. With his death, the world began its slow return to a natural state, gradually erasing the icy scars he had left behind. Forever associated with Ebon, it's said that in the remote reaches of Mortéglace, one can still hear his screams emanating from the icy crevasses.
Natural Landmarks
Ebon has never been accurately mapped and lacks marked natural landmarks. However, it is known that far beneath the surface, in the oceanic depths, a Worldtree was planted during the earliest days of the Ancestors' arrival.
