Order of Tal'vos
They are a cult of wizards who use all sorts of spells against you. They wear black robes and have long hoods. They are in all areas.

Icewind Raiders
The Icewind Raiders were a normal bandit group until their leaders, Vanis Hawkeye, got powers of Cryomancy. He shared his powers among the bandits, creating powerful ice warriors. The bandits use a mix of ice magic and swords against you. They are mainly found in Icewind Peaks.
