#### Metamagic

##### Careful Spell

When you cast a spell that forces other creatures to make a saving throw, you can protect some of those creatures from the spell's full force. To do so, you spend 1 sorcery point and choose a number of those creatures up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). A chosen creature automatically succeeds on its saving throw against the spell.

##### Quickened Spell

When Tempest casts a spell that has a casting time of 1 action, she can spend 2 sorcery points to make it a 1 bonus action for this casting.

#### Origin Powers

##### Wind Speaker

The arcane magic Tempest commands is infused with elemental air. She can speak, read, and write Primordial.

##### Tempestuous Magic

Starting at 1st level, Tempest can use a bonus action on your turn to cause whirling gusts of elemental air to briefly surround her, immediately before or after she casts a spell of 1st level or higher. Doing so allows you to fly up to 10 feet without provoking opportunity attacks.

##### Heart of the Storm

At 6th level, Tempest gain resistance to lightning and thunder damage. In addition, whenever you start casting a spell of 1st level or higher that deals lightning or thunder damage, stormy magic erupts from her. This eruption causes creatures of her choice that Tempest can see within 10 feet of herself to take lightning or thunder damage (choose each time this ability activates) equal to half your sorcerer level.

If it is windy, she can use a bonus action each round to choose the direction that the wind blows in a 100-foot-radius sphere centered on you. The wind blows in that direction until the end of your next turn. This feature doesn't alter the speed of the wind.

##### Storm's Fury

Starting at 14th level, when Tempest is hit by a melee attack, she can use her reaction to deal lightning damage to the attacker. The damage equals your sorcerer level. The attacker must also make a Strength saving throw against your sorcerer spell save DC. On a failed save, the attacker is pushed in a straight line up to 20 feet away from her.

## Trivia

* Tempest might have Dragon's fruit, but it is less likely than you would think. Both Kaido and Big Mom can manipulate the weather with their fruit. The former because she can bend her surroundings to her whim, the latter because he is a mythical zoan of some kind. There are many mythological figures that can manipulate the weather, so he could be those. Of course, this is just a possibility, which just makes this a gamble by Rustage. *Weather* or not he's right remains to be seen.
* Her introduction as a sorceress player character means that Rustage allows the class in his One Piece campaigns.
* The reason Tempest is a sorcerer was due to Rustage not wanting to play another martial class for the Second Movie
* She had big tits in her original sketch art, which the players liked.
* Tempest alongside Olaf and Scourge, were only created by Rustage to even out the number of cards each faction has on the Devil's Luck card game since all other flames were already cards.
