Thunder Spirit (Intermediate God)
As the voice of the Great Spirit, Thunder is the herald of disaster and the bearer of good fortune. Also known as Heng or the Thunder Bird, Thunder announces the coming of great disasters.
He also has the power to bring good fortune to those who deserve it. Occasionally, when Wind has neglected to bring rain to a deserving tribe, Thunder carries a lake upon his back and sprinkles it over the fields.
In true form , Thunder resembles a huge black eagle as large as the sky, but he sometimes appears as a warrior in storm clouds.
Ropleplaying Tips
Thunder does not enjoy his role as the harbinger of catastrophe. Nevertheless, he executes this duty conscientiously.
Portents of impending disaster include fierce thunder, cloud cover so heavy it blots out the sun, and the unexpected and unwelcome arrival of thousands of birds.
Omens of good fortune always take the form of a black eagle soaring overhead. In fact, such a sighting is enough to grant advantage on saving throws or attack rolls of the viewer object of the omen for a period of 1d10 weeks.
Thunder rarely punishes tribes or individuals directly. Rather he simply withdraws his support.
