Nizzra is the Elder and Elemental Goddess of Thunder and ruler of the Plane of Energy. As the title "Elder Goddess" suggests, she was one of the five Gods who created the stars and the planets. Daughter of the Primary Gods, Oloth and Ssun, she is the ruler of thunder, lightning, natural electrical energy and storms. Nizzra is associated with destruction, power, raw strength and anger.  

Like all of the Elder Gods, Niara is a part of existence - part of the world we live in. She therefore cannot be destroyed, killed or exiled, unlike demi-gods and minor deities. She is eternal in every sense of the word.  

The Elder Gods, who naturally contrast themselves to a dangerous level, are far from divine siblings who rule hand-in hand. Most of them oppose one another and, Nizzra in particular, attempt to overcome the others however possible. Nizzra has an ancient, burning hatred for her sister, Niara - Goddess of Water, who's passive, pacifist and daydream-like persona insults the Thunder Goddess. The situation is similar between Nizzra and Aeros, the God of the wind. 

Though technically in partnership with Chathis, the Elder God of Fire, Nizzra is envious of his strength and harbours bitterness toward her divine brother. She is arrogant and egoistic, wanting to be the most powerful of her rivals above all else. 

Church

The Church of Nizzra tends to be aggressive, controlling and quick to raise the sword. A temple of clerics who worship Strike often act as the town or city guard. Nizzra's religious representatives tend to preach of the importance of power and endurance, both physically and mentally, and making full use of life's advantages. Priests of Nizzra are extremely hostile to any opposing Churches and have been the soul cause of various religious wars in Woodruffian history. 

Nizzra accepts any race into her Church, as long as they accept the harsh doctrine revolving around dominance. Those of evil alignment are attracted to the religion through hunger for wealthy and power, though fundamentally good Churches do exist.

Nizzra is most commonly seen in the Material Plane as a large, destructive and noisy thunder storm. Though much more common in times of divine war, these vicious and indiscriminate storms can occur at any time. They can be distinguished from normal storms by the truly ear-splitting roars and immense, blue-tinted fork lightning. 

Less commonly, Nizzra will appear in her only humanoid form - a huge, thunderous Drow female who floats in the sky. She supposedly appeared in this form during a great, legendary battle waged against the Elemental Gods by a, now non-existent, house of deities that were conclusively destroyed. Ancient texts claim that Nizzra appeared through the clouds, over 60' tall, and obliterated thousands of the opposing army before fading back into the skies with a "hellish cackle". Other reports of her revealing herself in this form have been documented. 

Appearance: 80' tall, giant, robed and flying female Drow with frightful, white eyes lacking irises. She is also described as being "shrouded in lightning".
