The Church of the Sparkborn is a storm-worshipping faith that venerates lightning, wind, electricity, and the raw, unpredictable forces of energy as divine expressions of creation and change.
Its followers believe that storms are moments when the gods speak most clearly, and that arcane electricity is a tangible link between mortal ingenuity and elemental power. Rather than centering on a single deity, the Church draws from a broad spectrum of storm and energy-related beings, including Talos, Kord, and countless localized storm spirits. The Church is particularly popular among artificers, engineers, and those working with volatile energy systems, as its teachings align closely with invention and risk-taking.
Priests, known as stormcallers or sparkseers, often serve as both spiritual guides and technical advisors in matters involving arcane power infrastructure. While the faith encourages bold experimentation, it also teaches respect for balance—warning that uncontrolled energy can just as easily destroy as it can create. Rituals within the faith often involve exposure to controlled electrical currents, ceremonial storm-chasing, windborne offerings, and the construction of conductive shrines designed to channel lightning safely. Devotees embrace motion, experimentation, and unpredictability, viewing stagnation as a form of spiritual decay. Innovation is considered a sacred act, especially when it harnesses chaotic forces without being consumed by them.
