[QUOTE="Mishihari Lord, post: 6056745, member: 128"] Let's see, there's hypothermia snow blindness getting lost because everything's covered food issues falling through ice into a lake or pond limited mobility - very easy to get stranded for the season in a mountain valley, frex drifts can cover important things, like your house's doors and windows smoke inhalation if you do a bad job of venting the fire/stove in your house starving, aggressive predators avalanches sickness - when you're hungry, wet, cold, and exhausted you're less resistant to disease, and when it's cold and everyone's crammed together it spreads easier too slipping off a mountain path because it's icy These are even more fun in conjunction. The PCs get stranded in a mountain valley because the passes are snowed shut. They can't gather plant food so they have to go hunting. They get lost and disoriented in the snow, fall through some ice into a lake (which they didn't see because snow covered it) and then have to find their way back to the house as night comes on and the temperature drops before they freeze to death. This is leaving out fantasy elements of course, ice paraelementals, white dragons, and they like. [/QUOTE]
