Zeffyros, Wavebreaker, Bringer of Storms – God of Tempest, Sea, and Change
Domains: Storms, Seas, Change
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Zeffyros rules over tempestuous seas, sudden storms, and the transformative power of nature. Sailors, coastal villages, and adventurers pray to him for protection and guidance. He is often invoked alongside Veyrlas, though some worship him as a rival, believing storms and floods bear his judgment.
Temples are cliffside towers, with lightning rods or high flagpoles. Folktales tell of Zeffyros appearing as a whirlwind or water spout, punishing arrogance or rewarding bravery. His favour is as unpredictable as a storm; those who survive his tests often return changed in both skill and perspective.
Lore & Sayings:
- “The storm is Zeffyros’ hand, the calm his whisper.”
- Coastal shrines leave offerings of saltwater and driftwood.
- Some sailors interpret sudden storms as his messages, requiring reflection on recent deeds.
