Change Storm/Chaos Storm/God Storm

Steel Realms
Change Storm/Chaos Storm are strange storms of magnetism and lightning form, as big as a hurricane. God’s breath (white/a fog of dead silence), ice (dark green) and fire (light blue) arc out in all directions from a center, or ‘eye’. These are thought to occur on places where death and destruction occurred on a massive scale, or the anger and animosity of several gods clashed and their will’s fought through the manifestation of the storm. They give birth to all manner of foul and strange creatures; These run amok in any random direction, threatening all who come into their path until they are killed. These “storms” appear without warning. This can happen every day, sometimes multiple times when large elements of Primaeth are present. Such old areas were cleansed as part of a larger effort, no new ones have happened since the Godspeak Accord. Sometimes though, leftover elements, soaked deep in the earth, will trigger a new, minor storm. The manifestation of these was initially believed to be the source of “The Shattering” until events clearly differentiated them.

Effects: These are whispered about, few have lived to witness what they are capable of. One of the names they are given is “Change Storm” because it produces changes on creatures they touch. Odd limbs, a merging of animal and humanoid, and horrid features can be afflicted on those caught in them. Sometimes orrish priests tie up goblins and expose them to a storm in the hopes that they will gain some feature and or power that they can use… most go insane though. The healing and recovery of of the effects is often under the auspices of Reclamation of the Wyld project.

Notable Steel Realms Timeline Events

God Storm

A lesser powered and shorter version of these are thought to be caused by a drop or more of god’s blood or Primaeth spilled upon the ground over which they form. The greatest God Storm was in The Valley of Sighs, when the Blood of Saemon crossed into the world of The Steel Realms/Helca and the gods fought and a million souls died. Never has there been a storm like that since.

It is thought the magics that fueled the stopping of the Bale Times (The Sundering) drew upon the power of a God Storm to rival that which was present in The Crossing (The Coming of The Blood of Saemon).
