Southern Tundra
The Red Flats The Flats are the northern-most area of the Tundra, where the terrain is rocky and unpredictable. And let's not forget that the stone is bright red. Winter: The flats are covered in about a foot of snow, the red stone and dirt hidden for now. Harsh winter storms of sleet and snow blow through the area. Spring: Some of the snow begins to melt away, leaving a bit of the red stone poking out. The storms die down. Summer: Most of the snow has melted, leaving the rocky surface riddled with puddles. The soil isn't fit for anything to grow on it. Autumn: The cold is back, laying down the snow in an unbroken blanket. The land is calm, waiting for the storms of winter.

The Southern Tundra The cold and forbidding tundra is the southernmost point of the Deeds Undone territory. It stretches for as far as the eye can see in all directions, not even the slightest sign of a hill in sight. Since this is the least forbidding of the territories, and where the caribou migrate to, the tribe will camp here in the summer. Winter: An unpenetrable sheet of ice covers the entire tundra, choking out any living plants. All the small mamals that lived on the surface have gone into hiding. Larger prey, such as caribou, have migrated south. The people have moved north, to the coast, for the winter. Sping: The sheet of ice has softened, replaced by slushy snow. Summer: Most of the snow has melted, allowing hardy tundra flowers and grass to grow. The prey is in full swing, making for good hunting. By this time the people have set up caribou-skin tents. Fall: The vegitation starts to die off, revealing the brown ground underneath. Winter sneaks in slowly and the people move on.

Northern Glaciers and Beyond
The Northern Glacier Head north from the Red Flats and the terrain will become suddenly rocky, raising up in jagged spires that seem to pierce the sky. The glacier reaches up abruptly, leaving hidden abysses and ice caves. It stretches as an ice plain for miles, riddled and interrupted with unpassable cliffs and caves. Dog sleds are a necissity, but in order to get up onto the glacier with a sled full of gear you need a lot of skill. Many inexperienced sled teams have parished on this death trap. The glacier looks the same all year, except in the summer the melted snow creates rivers that course along the plateau and cascade in waterfalls off the sides.
The Bordering Range The mountain range curves around the glacier on all sides except the south side. It towers over the ice plain with valleys and crests as unpredicatable as the glacier that lays in its shadow. It may take days to cross, even through the pass. The pass is the only way to get through on a dog sled, but it's still rough. It's all too easy to get lost in a blizzard, all times of the year. Winter: The pass is blocked, making it almost impossible to cross through. Harsh blizzards echo through the valleys, covering everything in sight. Spring: The mountains' snow softens a bit, but it will never fully melt away. Summer and Fall: Even at this time of the year, trees are very rare. This is the best time to cross the mountains, and a worthy kayaker can even make it through on one of the mountian streams that originates in the heights of the crags.
The Northern Tundra Beyond the mountains the tundra continues, as if someone had just dropped the range in the middle of the flats by accident. But this land is much colder all year long, always frozen over with a thick layer of perma frost which is covered by several feet of ice, and then snow. It remains the same for the entire year, forbidding and silent except for the occasional flock of arctic birds that pass over. Somehow the lemmings and other small creatures have made tunnels through the frozen ground and to the surface, making one of the best hunting spots for the hungry wolves and lynxes.

Eastern Ice Sheets and Sea
The Pebbly Coast With only their faithful sled dogs to keep the Polar bears at bay, the tribe camps here durring the winter in a chain of igloos. The waves come crashing in all year long, too cold for the young ones to play in. The camp is far enough away from the water to be out of the seals' and walruses' ways, but close enough for a hunting party to be able to go on foot. A pair of seals' meat can keep the tribe going through half of the winter, and the tools they provide are priceless and help ensure the peoples' survival. Durring the summer the entire tribe packs up and moves to the south, following the caribou herds.
The Vast Sea Marking the eastern edge of the Deeds Undone territory, the Vast Sea continues further than any of the locals can imagine. Some predict that it marks the end of the world, but others reason that there must be something else out there... The sea is partially frozen over sometimes, especially durring the coldest winters. The southern edge is bordered by a beach of gray pebbles, where the seal hunters and fishermen can drag their catch to the shore. The humans fish in walrus hide canoes. They might use large harpoons to bring home a walrus, which can feed the entire village for a very long time and offer blubber and other implements for their use. Seal skins are used to make waterproof parkas. Winter: This is the only time that the people will hunt and live on the coast. Sometimes parts of the waters are frozen over. Spring through Fall: The land is filled with the calls of seals and the cries of arctic birds as they go about their daily business without having to worry about the humans.
The Ice Flats North of the coast where the fishermen hunt is the ice sheet, which is a very thick sheet of ice laying over the water. Eventually the water tapers off into land, and the ice lays over the dirt, but no one really knows exactly where that is. The seal hunters will watch the seals' breathing holes, sometimes for hours on end, in order to be able to harpoon the creature as soon as it comes out to breath. The hunters venture out on their sleds, sometimes many miles away from their camp on the coast. All year around the Polar bears will hunt here and on the coast. Winter: The ice sheet is at its thickest, making it hard to find the seals' breathing holes. Spring through Early Fall: The flats are abandoned by the humans, who have headed south to the tundra.

Western Wild Territory
South Western Mountains This is the southwestern edge of the mountain range, nearly identical to the northern mountains. The lynxes subside here for most of the year, sometimes sharing with the wolves. The further west the mountains, the steeper and more treacherous they get. Of course, this isn't a problem for the creatures, who have made these mountains their home for their entire life. The lynxes dug burrows into the mountainside, snug little dens where they sleep and tend to their young in solidarity.

No-Man's Land OK, so maybe the entire Deeds Undone territory is a no-man's land, but this particular piece of it is even more so. Seldom visited by the humans, this territory belongs to the wolves. It is the northernmost forest in the entire world, filled with ancient evergreens that barely survive in the harsh climate. The ground is only kept thawed by the trees' roots. There is always a thin layer of snow, no matter what the season, because the evergreens block out all of the sun and most of the snow. The prey is scarce, but the shelter is plentiful. Most of the wolves live at the edge of the forest, either near the mountains and lynxes or at the edge of the tundra, where the food is plentiful. There is only one wolf pack for now.

Homestead
Main Street About a hundred miles south of the Inuit reservation is a bustling port known as Homestead where the people may need to buy necessary supplies and bed for the night. The Inuit only come down here a couple times of the year because of the distance. Scientists and anyone else wishing to visit the people usually are dropped off and picked up here.
Main Street is indeed the main street. All of the roads branch off of this one. It's chaotic and unorganized, but it's a necessity if one plans on getting anywhere. Most people walk or ride bikes, but some have cars or even horses. This two-lane road is the largest and most complicated in the city, with crosswalks zig-zagging every which way and cars making illegal u-turns in the middle of the intersections. There are few stoplights. The noise can be deafening at times, and so can the smell if no one bothers to pick up after the horses. Indoor shops line the road, containing everything from horse grain to reading material to gifts. Shabby ma-and-pa restaurants seem to occupy every corner, the aroma of freshly-fried chicken and baked goods leaking out of them.
