Homebrew Storm Child Species Details

Known as “Children Of The Storm”, Storm children at some point have been blessed by the storm lord filling their veins with blood that slowly cackles with electrical energy.

With most not knowing of their heritage until they reach adulthood, the electrical energy within them builds from infancy with their first encounter with their abilities being one of the most devastating as their energy is released for the first time. Many Storm Children don’t know of their powers or their history as it is phenomenally rare to encounter one or for one to encounter another. A family could have no history or heritage relating to the storm lords and one child could be blessed with these abilities. 

A child of any race could be a storm child and not know it. History books don’t hold much information about these people as many keep their powers secret.
