Scion of the Storm

You were not born in a cradle, but in a tempest.

The storm is your bloodline, whether through divine blessing, planar ancestry, or surviving a world-shattering squall. The winds whisper your name, the lightning knows your heartbeat, and thunder echoes your fury. Perhaps you are the child of an elemental, the chosen of a tempest god, or the survivor of a storm that should have ended you. Now, you carry the storm inside—and the world will feel its wrath.

A Scion of the Storm is someone whose very soul is touched by primal, elemental storm-force—a person who didn’t merely survive a storm, but was changed by it. They are the chosen, the marked, or the born-of-tempest. This could mean:

• You were literally born during a supernatural storm, and it marked your destiny.

• A storm spirit, tempest god, or elemental claimed you or blessed you as a child.

• You survived a cataclysmic storm when others didn’t, leaving you touched by the storm's power.

• You’re a descendant of elemental beings, or perhaps even a quasi-elemental yourself.

• You are drawn to storms, feel most alive in them, and seem to channel their power unconsciously.
