Daughter of the sea god Delanor, Shurassa is the violence of a storm at sea, as well as the welcome calm after. She can be unpredictable and considered harsh by those who have run afoul of her temper, but she can be as swift to forgive and bring peace to her followers as she is to bring gales and thunder. Ayratha has often called upon her sister to call the sea's rage down upon the crew of a worthy ship. Shurassa has a strained relationship with Phyrah, as the light-hearted goddess is more often loved than feared by followers. Those who suffer painful diseases or wasting illnesses burn candles afloat in sea or salt water to summon her to their sides and ease their pain. Those who suffer great personal trial will seek out storms and cry hymns and prayers to the goddess to release them from their struggles. Those she answers are not always grateful. Hymns to the goddess are part praise for the majesty of a storm tossed sea and supplications to stay her wrath. Her temples are often found on coastlines hit by hurricanes and it is a rare ship that doesn't have a shrine to the storm goddess. It is considered good luck to sail with a piece of a ship sunken by her wrath, as many believe she does not visit her wrath upon the same ship twice.

Even so, many sailors will put a splinter from a sunken ship or some image of a ship sinking beneath a shipboard shrine in efforts to turn the goddess' attention. She appears as a grey-eyed woman with severe features, often elven, with long black hair that clings to her face and neck and shoulders, wet with rain and sea water. She wears a dress made of the sails of sunken ships of all nations and wears a golden circlet upon her brow said to be a gift from Ayratha. She wields a trident named "Stormshard" after her father's blade. [/size] -Created by Sparky [/QUOTE]
