Fulgorae – Spirits of Lightning Might 10-15 (Auram) (Spiring)
Fulgorae are airy spirits of Auram which are attracted by the fiercest thunderstorms. Their presence renders these storms more dramatic and fearsome than any that can be found in the mundane world. Their physical bodies (when manifested) are formed out of pure lightning and course as a striking bolt from point to point. To the ignorant this may appear to be some kind of bizarre natural phenomenon.
Like all spirits of Auram they are fixated on change, flexibility, and malleability. Though due to their nature this takes on a decidedly more destructive bent than many spirits of the air. It is well documented that once they have struck something and destroyed it they will never voluntarily strike it again – no more change can be made to it through their powers, so it becomes of no consequence to them.
Fulgorae are potent servants for magi, able to strike down many foes. This is among the most dangerous spirits for a theurge to attempt to bind, however, as they hate to be caged or pressed into long service and are intelligent enough to hold grudges! Somewhat surprisingly considering their destructive nature they are quite lucid and good conversationalists, if they can be kept in one place for long enough.

This power allows the spirit to manifest as a lightning bolt. In this form they move as a bolt of lightning would but the spirit can choose the place the bolt will strike. Whatever is struck by the spirit in this form takes +20 damage. This is slightly less than a mundane bolt of lightning, as the spirit must dissolve the body before the bolt completely dissipates or be destroyed itself. The spirit may choose to deal +30 damage instead, but afterwards is immediately destroyed. This leaves behind 2-3 pawns of insubstantial Auram vis (less if the spirit has depleted their might pool before this).
