Firn Wastelander

Though it may not be as well known as other competitions, the Firn Wastelands hosts one of the harshest. However you've come across it, you've made the decision to participate your fair share of times, earning yourself the title of "Firn Wastelander". Taking place in the dangerous mountain region full of sharp, steep rock, snow, ice, pine, deadly monsters, and inhospitably brutal cold temperatures, the competition requires it's competitors to tough out the landscape as long as possible without the use of any equipment or magic. Many participate yearly, but are quickly forced to drop out with only the most hardened making it for extended periods. You may be one of these, and maybe you've even managed to grab yourself a win. Either way, each winter you make the trek out to the wastelands, making your attempt at the title of champion, and it's certainly left you as a different person. Do you forage, or hunt? Do you build shelter, or improvise it? Do you work alone, or with your fellow competitors? It's up to you.
