Storm Archer (5e Class)

Storm Archer

Warriors have drawn inspiration and power from nature to creature their techniques since the dawn of the world. Some are inspired by the ferocity of beasts, others by the untamed force of the elements, the burning fire, the tormentous sea - and the raging storm. The storm archers are those who seeks to not only mimic the core elements of the lightning on their fighting style, but truly channel its magical power, unleashing elemental destruction from their arrows. The storm archer on the battlefield is as terrifying as a storm on sea, as they are bringers of destruction, hurling bolts of lightning from their arrows and ordering the sky itself to obey their commands.

Harbingers of the Tempest

It is said that the first storm archers were rivals of Kord, taking refuge in a island temple constantly stricken by powerful storms to challenge his might. From the beginning, they learned to see the storm as a show of force, a demonstration power and glory - the storm forces humanoids to harden and grow stronger at sea, to respect the power of the skies. Using the rivalry of the God of tempests, they set out to wield its power for themselves. To grow strong enough to challenge even the gods. With their physical prowess, mad hunger for power, and especially, their fearsome archery technique, honed on the island for centuries; they created a lethal style. Converging the deadliness of an arrow and the energy of lightning and thunder.

Creating a Storm Archer

by Norman Suarno

When you create your Storm Archer, ask yourself a few questions to better define your character. First, how did you start your journey as a Storm Archer? Have you been trained by monks of Kord, learning the godly power of Kord himself? Or are you a student of lightning or thunder magic, seeking to be a potential rival to the thunder god? Has your lineage blessed you with an affinity for lighting and thunder? Have you gained your powers by dabbling into the secrets of the Storm Giants magic rune?

Then, explain why you chose this path. Do you train to increase your skills and power in order to reach your full potential, by connecting with the power of storms? Are you a warrior that wants to wield the savage elemental power of thunder to conquer your enemies in battle? Do you simply feed off the fear in your enemies eyes as they watch their brethren fall before you?
