The Ockan Tribes were a group of indigenous peoples historically inhabiting the northern regions of Roregon, particularly near the Roregon Highlands and the areas surrounding Lake Cryos. Known for their resilience in extreme cold climates, their deep connections to nature, and their complex societal structures, the Ockan people have played a significant role in the history and culture of northern Roregon.
Etymology
The name "Ockan" is derived from their own word Ōkkanē, meaning "people of the frozen lands" or "those who walk the frost." Early explorers, including James "Coldfoot" Harrison, adopted this term when documenting their encounters with the tribes.
