Orjun, God of Skies

Orjun, God of Skies, The Lord of Clouds. His holy symbol is a white cloud trailing down to a black bottom. Orjun was both a whispering wind and the raging tempest, sweet and pleasant at times while bitter and cold at others. His form changes with the seasons. In religious depictions he was often portrayed as a giant, blue, translucent man with huge celestial and feathery wings that trail away into the clouds. The Lord of Clouds avatar usually appeared as a 160 feet (49 meters) tall column of swirling winds, reminiscent of a giant tornado reaching into the clouds. His voice could range in volume from the slightest breeze to a booming squall audible for miles in every direction.
Orjun was free, chaotic and impulsive, and did not like to stay in any one place for too long, wishing to spread his presence across the world. While he delighted in creating unpredictable weather, including some fairly severe thunderstorms, he primarily enjoyed to feel the air around him as he flew high above the ground.
The church of Orjun was small, with little organization and only a few scattered temples. The clergy was primarily concerned with exploration and maintaining good relations with other sentient avian races, such as giant eagles and aarakocra.
As the avariel declined in number, few clerics of Orjun could fly without magical aid. As a result, many of his priests worked to create new spells and items to give magical flight and were sometimes given the gift to levitate by the deity himself. Clerics and Druid of The Lord of Clouds prayed for their spells at dawn, just as the first breeze was felt drifting across the land.
Orjun was worshiped by almost all aarakocra, and he was known to appear to them in the form of a brilliant white giant bird. The feathers that fell from his plumage during these apparitions became some of the most treasured items in an aarakocran nest and if any other found were treated as holy items in his temples.
His wife is Idona, Goddess of Seas. His father is Enir and the brother of Fastalbien. His sons were Idur and Thumir.
