Welcome
Cold Water Fisherfolk in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Cold Water Fisherfolk
Knucklehead trout are the most famous fish in the lakes and streams of Icewind Dale, but fish of all kinds are a staple of the Dale’s diet and trade. You are one of the many fisherfolk who daily pull this resource from the frigid waters providing for others as other sources of food grow scarce.
Features
Secret Spot: You know all the best spots for fishing and when to go there. When others can’t get anything to bite, you are bound to catch enough to feed a party of ten given sufficient time.
