Stuff for the Thule setting
Weather
Fog. Lots of fog. It gives atmosphere, causes issues with frost, limits visibility.
Ditto with precipitation. Rain makes things miserable, causes issues with searching and exploring; summer snows can hide features.
An early winter means that returning home is dangerous, but staying through the brutal winter is likely madness.
Natural hazards
Ice crevasses
Avalanche
Hidden pits and ditches
Pretty much total lack of vegetative food
Lack of wood for building, fires; must be imported somehow. For fires, they may import peat, coal, dung, etc.
Natural beasts in the environment
Polar bears
Reindeer
Arctic foxes
Walruses
Seals (a few varieties)
Whales
Narwhals
Various species of geese
Puffins! (So adorbs…)
Unnatural enemies to include
Frost giants
Yeti
Ice hags
Ice trolls
White dragon
Draugr and other undead
A snow witch who is animating the corpses of frost giants into Draugr
Giant furry snakes
Snow vipers (apparently, northern Norway has vipers!)
Remorhaz
Wind witches - minor-ish air elementals that blow ice, cutting flesh
Snow and Ice Golems
