Wind Spirit (Intermediate God)
Wind, also known as Hotoru, is the master of weather and climate. Upon his breath, he carries life-giving rains or the parched gasps of drought. He can cool off a hot day, or he can uproot trees and topple even the slurdiest of lodges with a tornado.
Wind takes great joy in his liberty from the Great Spirit’s authority, exercising his powers with caprice and whim.
In his true form, Wind is an invisible swirl of air that can always be felt and sometimes heard, but never seen.
He has the power to control weather at will, even to the point of parching the land with hot breezes one moment and covering it with terrible blizzards the next.
Ropleplaying Tips
Wind is chaotic and capricious. Upon noticing any slight, he is likely to take vengeance in the form of catastrophic weather. Omens from Wind take the form of unusual winds. When he punishes one of his own priests, he carries the offender away in a powerful tornado and drops him in the middle of a large body of water.
