Storm Sorcery - Fallen London

Your innate magic comes from the power of Storm; one of the gods of the Unterzee. Many with this power can trace their magic back to his tempestuous presence, whether you were born during one of the rare squalls that battered London, or you were struck by lightning during one of his wrath-filled rampage. Whatever the case, the magic of Storm permeates your being.

Storm sorcerers are invaluable members of a ship's crew. Their magic allows them to exert control over the weather in their immediate area. Their abilities also prove useful in repelling attacks by zee-beasts, pirates, and other waterborne threats.
