The ''Katahdin Tundra'', an area existing only on the 1-alt server, is essentially Nightmist's version of Antarctica.  It is a large, continental island locked in perpetual winter courtesy of [[Pamola]]. The entry and exit point is via a [[Silversail]] cruiseliner which docks at the ''Loading Pier'' of the  ''Whaling Station''; the ''Whaling Station'' is quite spartan as far as towns go, as it does not have a bank. Only characters of level 29 or higher are able to board the ship from [[Silversail]] to the ''Katahdin Tundra''.
 +
 
 +
The ''Whaling Station'' is located at the northernmost edge of the island. The ''Whaling Station'' consists of only one street that runs from west to east, a ''Loading Pier'' runs north near the center of this singular street and another small path goes south from the center of the singular street. Along the south side of the singular street are buildings including a tavern and three shops.
 +
 
 +
From the ''Whaling Station'', there are three exit points leading onto a large ''Frozen Plain'' where most of the monsters of the ''Katahdin Tundra'' are found. Generally, the creatures dwelling on this ''Frozen Plain'' are arranged in such a way that it favours particular classes. The western side is better suited for [[Mage]]s with higher numbers of [[Ice Troll]]s; the central exit is better for [[Berserker]]s with its wide open expanse so being under the effects of [[Grog XD]] is not too detrimental; the eastern side is better for [[Cleric]]s and [[Paladin]]s, as there are a greater concentration of undead there. For more details, refer to the ''Monsters'' section found under the ''Population'' section of this page.
 +
 
 +
Furthermore, as the ''Frozen Plain'' is transversed southwestwards from the ''Whaling Station'', a massive ''Talaskan Forest'', with its twisting pathways, hold fearsome predators within its depths. ''Lake Talaska'' is located somewhat to the center of the forest, its frozen surface bearing treacherous thin ice. At five different locations are an opening in the surface ice allowing for safe passage underwater; going underwater without a [[Water Ring]] leads to a sure death by drowning.
 +
 
 +
Further southwestwards, through the ''Talaskan Forest'', is a smaller ''Frozen Plain'' which is shaped like a crescent as it skirts the southwest side of the forest. Near to the very southeastern end of this ''Frozen Plain'', also close to the southern exit of the ''Talaskan Forest'', is a ''Coastal Path'' snaking eastwards to meet another ''Frozen Plain''. This ''Frozen Plain'' spirals clockwise beginning slightly past the sixth hour and goes around to almost the sixth hour, giving the illusion of rising ground around a tumulus, and turns northward upon the top of the ''Alomkik Tumulus''.

The ''Fisherman's Rest'' is located on the south side of the singular street of the ''Whaling Station'', the first building west from the center of the street.

General Information

Katahdin Tundra (WikiVersion).png

The Katahdin Tundra, an area existing only on the 1-alt server, is essentially Nightmist's version of Antarctica. It is a large, continental island locked in perpetual winter courtesy of Pamola. The entry and exit point is via a Silversail cruiseliner which docks at the Loading Pier of the Whaling Station; the Whaling Station is quite spartan as far as towns go, as it does not have a bank. Only characters of level 29 or higher are able to board the ship from Silversail to the Katahdin Tundra.

The Whaling Station is located at the northernmost edge of the island. The Whaling Station consists of only one street that runs from west to east, a Loading Pier runs north near the center of this singular street and another small path goes south from the center of the singular street. Along the south side of the singular street are buildings including a tavern and three shops.

From the Whaling Station, there are three exit points leading onto a large Frozen Plain where most of the monsters of the Katahdin Tundra are found. Generally, the creatures dwelling on this Frozen Plain are arranged in such a way that it favours particular classes. The western side is better suited for Mages with higher numbers of Ice Trolls; the central exit is better for Berserkers with its wide open expanse so being under the effects of Grog XD is not too detrimental; the eastern side is better for Clerics and Paladins, as there are a greater concentration of undead there. For more details, refer to the Monsters section found under the Population section of this page.

Furthermore, as the Frozen Plain is transversed southwestwards from the Whaling Station, a massive Talaskan Forest, with its twisting pathways, hold fearsome predators within its depths. Lake Talaska is located somewhat to the center of the forest, its frozen surface bearing treacherous thin ice. At five different locations are an opening in the surface ice allowing for safe passage underwater; going underwater without a Water Ring leads to a sure death by drowning.

Further southwestwards, through the Talaskan Forest, is a smaller Frozen Plain which is shaped like a crescent as it skirts the southwest side of the forest. Near to the very southeastern end of this Frozen Plain, also close to the southern exit of the Talaskan Forest, is a Coastal Path snaking eastwards to meet another Frozen Plain. This Frozen Plain spirals clockwise beginning slightly past the sixth hour and goes around to almost the sixth hour, giving the illusion of rising ground around a tumulus, and turns northward upon the top of the Alomkik Tumulus.

Snow Foxes are also prevalent in the area though a greater concentration of them are found near the Whaling Station and within the Talaskan Forest. They are also found on the surface of Lake Talaska.

Piranhas and Stone Fish lurk in the cold depths of Lake Talaska. A lone Ice Wraith guards the ominous glow at the very bottom of Lake Talaska and is kill-to-pass; Ice Wraiths are also spawned by Pamola. Kitsunes can be found underwater but they accompany Lady Talaska.

Bosses

Pamola flies in circles just above the Alomkik Tumulus.
