There is currently no beastman tribe that is affiliated with the Ice element. As an Ice Primal (Shiva) has been confirmed, it is likely that another beast tribe will be introduced, probably when an expansion including an icy/snowy terrain is made.
Not sure whether Sirens are related to Sahgains or if they are a separate beast tribe, or just ordinary monsters.
