=== The Stony Shore: ===

The western coastlines of the North that runs from Blazewater Bay to Sea Dragon Point. It is defined by expansive pebble beaches and rocky bluffs. The soil in thin and shallow inland, due to the lack of protection from the gusting winds. The sparse and straggly trees stand far apart from one another here. A distinct culture has emerged from the way of life that living in these parts requires, colloquially referred to by most as the Pebblemen. ~~Pebblman~~ culture is defined by a lifestyle of quarrying, fishing, and defending their coast against Ironborn raiders. By the time of the Coming of the Andals there were two Pebbleman Kings along the Stony Shore - the Slate Kings of Blackpool, and the Fisher Kings of Whitecaster.

The Island that sits in the Bay of Ice might have been considered no more than an extension of the Clans of the Wood or the Mountain Clans, were it not for the unique people that have grown up under its dense pines or ~~high mountain~~.

The Island that sits in the Bay of Ice might have been considered no more than an extension of the Clans of the Wood or the Mountain Clans, were it not for the unique people that have grown up under its dense pines or single jagged peak. The Bearmen, like the men of the Stony Shore, have been shaped by the threats that come to their shores, both from Ironmen Reavers, and Wildling Raiders that dare to cross the Bay of Ice from Beyond the Wall. The Bearmen believe that every man and woman must be able to toil and fight, in order for their people to survive. This has led to a unique perception of succession and a woman's role in war and peacetime. By the time of the Coming of the Andals, Bear Island was ruled by the Woodfoots, and their most significant vassal was House Mormont of Bearstone.
