  • 15. Storm (Polynesian Delegation) – Racial Draft Season 2


    Storm’s new backstory — as per Tamati — is as follows:

    TE UIRA/STORM:

    “Hikohiko te Uira, haruru te whaititiri” ⛈

    “The flash of lightning, the rumbling of thunder” ⛈

    The Urukehu are descendants of an ancestor ‘Urukehu’. Traditions say she was the first to be given the power to control the weather. This power was given to her by the god Tawhirimatea.

    It’s told that a descendant would come who would channel and control the full powers of Tawhirimatea himself.

    Over many millennia the Urukehu remained hidden, choosing to stay away from conflict. Even as colonisation ravaged people around them.

    Te Uira from birth demonstrated abilities far surpassing others of her tribe. Her moods dictated the weather. She honed her skills to enable her to channel lightning, winds and rain. Her control was such that she could fly with the winds.

    With encouragement, she traveled the world. Te Uira used her powers where she could to break droughts and avert climate disasters. She even encountered and nourished a sentient living island.

    She returned home with a newfound purpose, to use her powers to protect people.

    This culminated in her battling alongside the god Thor against invading giants. During the battle she wielded Mjolnir. She connected with the hammer, because like her, it channeled and controlled the power of a god.

    Thor said in Asgard she would be a Goddess. Te Uira said her place was here in this world. If needed she would support Thor and others who served to protect.

    Footage of the battle surfaced across various platforms on social media. It was here that Te Uira would be given a new name…Storm. A name she would adopt for future adventures.

  • 4. Thor (Polynesian Delegation) – Racial Draft Season 2

    (Polynesian) Thor’s new backstory — as per Tamati — is as follows:

    “Whakataka te hau ki te uru, whakataka te hau ki te tonga. Kia mākinakina ki uta, Kia mātaratara ki tai.”

    “Get ready for the westerly to turn into a southerly. Making it prickly cold inland, and piercingly cold on the shore.”

    The battle in Jotunheim with the Frost Giants raged on. Thor, battle weary, continued to fight, with the singular purpose of stopping them from conquering other realms.

    Suddenly they retreated. A giant portal opened and they all vanished inside. Thor was left alone on a scorched battlefield.

    With the help of Heimdall he tracked them to Midgard (Earth). They had landed on the west coast of one of the northern islands of Aotearoa/New Zealand.

    They were battling with people in the shadow of the mountain Taranaki.

    Thor…paused. He noticed these people were fighting the Frost Giants using thunder and lightning!

    He would later find that these people were the Urukehu, the descendants of the Māori god of thunder, lightning and wind, Tawhirimatea.

    Thor joined the battle. At one point Mjolnir was knocked from his grasp. The leader of the tribe, a woman by the name of Te Uira, picked up the hammer, channeled the full power of her people, and fired a devastating lightning bolt that decimated the giants.

    With the battle ended, Thor vowed to always stay connected to this tribe. Te Uira said if Thor ever needed help, the Urukehu would be there.

    Thor was given the title ‘Te Whaititiri’. The personification of ‘Thunder’!!!
