Windwrath

Tefnut, wife of Shu, appears as an attractive woman with the head of a lion. She's a power of mercurial moods and changing disposition. Those who can read the weather can sense the changes in her mood - beneath the seeming chaos, there lies a deeper order, that of storms and lightning. Tefnut can be gentle and kind one minute, and thundering and harsh the next. She's not cruel and won't destroy without cause, but sods who incur her fury know it right away.

Tefnut's realm, Windwrath, sits on one of the many mountains of Bytopia, pummelled by winds and rain. The petitioners hide from the storms inside village-caverns; the largest settlement, Ston-khat, is guided by the proxy Dyalotep the Lame. The natives spend their time aiding passersby and serving their goddess. Though the wind rarely ceases and the rain lets up only occasionally, the natives love Windwrath, and most folks who go there do as well.
