The Stormborn Elves hail from the majestic Tempest Peaks, a range of mountains perpetually shrouded in storm clouds, where the roar of thunder and the crackle of lightning are as familiar as the wind's gentle whispers. Born under the watchful eyes of tempests, these elves are touched by the raw power of the skies and the relentless force of the wind.

Their Intelligence, a gift from the tempests that shape their homeland, sets Stormborn Elves apart as scholars and innovators. This ability enhances their magical prowess, allowing them to unravel the mysteries of the arcane with an inquisitive mind.

The proficiency in an additional language is a testament to the Stormborn Elves' engagement with neighboring civilizations and their desire to exchange knowledge. Their insatiable curiosity extends beyond the skies, reaching into the realms of art, science, and diplomacy.

The Hurricane Fury, a ritual passed down through generations, allows Stormborn Elves to tap into the tempest within, becoming avatars of the storm. During this elemental fury, they gain the power of flight, making them swift and elusive in battle. The swirling winds not only enhance their agility but also offer protection, deflecting non-magical ranged attacks.

As they mature, Stormborn Elves unlock the ability to cast Gust of Wind, a spell that channels the raw energy of the storm. This magical prowess allows them to manipulate the very air around them, unleashing gusts that can clear obstacles and disrupt adversaries.

Guardians of the Tempest Peaks, the Stormborn Elves embody the unbridled spirit of the skies. Their presence is a reminder that even in the most turbulent storms, there is beauty, power, and the potential for great discoveries. As they soar through the heavens, they carry with them the legacy of their mountainous realm, forever bound to the tempests that shaped their destiny.
