Lords of the frost, the brood of Bjarki reach their full potential in winter. Protected by the vigorous Shield Maiden and her armored bear Kaija, their defenses allow it to wait until the cold comes. Then, they can send their most vigorous troops at their crippled rivals.

• Food and Firewood penalties in winter are reduced by 30%.
• You can summon Kaija, the Armored bear to your Training Camp. It regenerates and produce Food near Fish.
• Instead of having reduced power, your military units gain 10% resistance bonus during the winter.

• Kindred Spirit
  Having Kaija, the Armored bear or a Maiden in a zone increases local production by 15%.
• The Bear Awakens
  You gain +3 Fame per enemy unit killed in a zone with the Maiden. Your military units gain +1% power per 100 Fame. Kaija, the Armored bear can now go in enemy territory.
