The Storm-handed One

One of the players in my basic game rolled a cleric, which he claimed was a priest of "Swordy McSwordyson." While this fit the mood at the time, I plan on urging him to choose a deity out of the 21 or so I have detailed. I think this will ground that character into the setting, and remove some of the OVERT comedy. Terminax, the god of victory and storms whose sacred weapon is the longsword, is likely the best equivalent for old Swordy. To further bait him into a switch, I plan to grant him the following spells (at appropriate level of course.) Terminax is aggressive and self centered, so I decided his unique spells would be personal buffs and offensive spells. NOTE: All three of these spells are adapted from the excellent Pars Fortuna, over on the Land of Nod blog.
