Forodwaith

Forodwaith is a (seemingly) endless ice desert that forms the north end of the known world of Middle-Earth. No plants grow here, nor do any mobs spawn. There is little reason to live here, other than to escape all the other people of Middle-Earth. It is one of the few places that never gets invaded, nor do thieves ever visit here. If you are looking for great danger, yet great reward, travel the land to seek out The Pits for a special adventure. But be warned, no one has ever returned from The Pits alive.

Forodwaith [40]
This is the main biome, an endless plain of snow. Some ice-seas can be found but nothing more. It is a barren wasteland.

Forodwaith Mountains [84]
This is another main biome of Forodwaith, featuring ice mountains.

Forodwaith Glacier [92]
This is a plain made of pure ice. Solid rock can only be found several blocks below the surface. This biome only spawns inside Forodwaith Mountains.

Frost
When staying in Forodwaith, the player can get the frost effect, which blends the screen in white for a short time and deals one damage (a half heart) to the player every 20 seconds.

There are several ways to help prevent this damage, however: Staying near a light source (torch, furnace, etc), getting underground, wearing armor made of leather, or, even better, Warg Fur Armour, will help minimize the damage caused by the cold.

The Pits of Utumno
In a suspicious looking valley in the Forodwaith there is a tall structure made of bricks long frozen from the eternal cold of the land. Inside there is a pit that one can jump into. The Pits lead down, down, down into the deeps of the world, deeper than the deepest mines of the Dwarves, into the dimension of Utumno. But do not come unprepared. There is no way out.
