Kord, the Stormlord
Where thunder booms and conflict rises, prayers to the
Storm Lord are shouted into the maelstrom. Reveling
in all tests of strength, Kord blesses those who prove
themselves on the battlefield. Worshiped by athletes
and warriors all across Exandria, he exalts those whose
force of spirit and desire for victory call his attention.
He brings tumultuous storms over land and sea, and
those who wish for clearer skies offer their praises and
prayers to appease him.
Kord dwells among the roving settlements and battlefields
within the rugged and glorious realm of Ysgard,
where struggle, victory, and celebration shape the landscape
and those who reside there.
Depiction
Within his temples, Kord is shown as a quintessential warrior, often nude with a beard and short, curled hair. As the epitome of muscle and strength, most art depicts the Storm Lord in a stance of dominance, and perhaps wrestling a terrible beast.
Holy Day
Kord's holy day is the Day of Challenging, which is celebrated on the seventh day of the second month. The Day of Challenging is one of the most raucous holidays in Port Damali, and thousands of spectators attend the annual Godsbrawl held in the Temple of Kord to root for their favored deity's champion, particularly the chosen champions of the Storm Lord and the All-Hammer.
Commandments of Kord
• Bravery above all . There is no glory in cowardice.• Strength is the path to greatness, but greatness is the responsible use of strength.
• The glory of the Storm Lord lives through your own glory on the battlefield.
