Aurelio Wraithridge
the Ironstorm Count
Named for the golden lightning that scars the same ridge each solstice, and the iron bell that tolls when a storm births a revenant.
Power
You can catch a lightning bolt mid-strike and forge it into a blade cold as winter iron — it lasts one night, but the sky goes silent for a league around until the next storm.
- Familiar
- a rust-spotted lynx named Fulmin

“You cannot kill what is already dead,” you told the priest in the rain, and he crossed himself as the first bolt struck the bell tower behind him. That was the first storm you remember, though you had already forgotten a hundred before it. You stood on the ridge where the iron bell hangs, its clapper a rusted sword, and the lightning came not to destroy you but to answer your name.
