Alu Kahn Sang
The Wind of Destruction. Lord of Dust Quasielementals [he/him] / CE
Realm: Dust (wandering)
Alu Kahn Sang, the Wind of Destruction, embodies the raw fury of the Elemental Chaos of Dust. Manifesting as a primordial dust storm the size of a small country, he’s less of a creature than a force of nature. Within and around him are his minion-children, a legion of dust quasielementals who are notorious for their love of havoc and destruction.
Chant goes Alu Kahn Sang used to be an earth primordial made of the hardest granite, but during the Dawn War he was struck by disintegration magic of immense power. Surviving by sheer force of will, Alu Kahn Sang’s wrath was so potent that even as a cloud of angry dust he breached the planar boundaries and spilled into Astral Sea. It took the combined efforts of the deities Khala and her son Kord to repel the living storm back into the confines of the Elemental Chaos. Despite this, Alu Kahn Sang was not subdued—while restrained to the plane of Dust, he is one of the few primordials who otherwise remain unchained, still nursing a grudge against the powers who gallivant on the Outer Planes.
These days, Alu Kahn Sang is the embodiment of retribution and seeks vengeance against the gods. He’s drawn to his side entropic elementals of every kind—though his allegiance to them can be as tenuous as the sands that compose his form. His followers are volatile and temperamental elementals, attracted by the promise of power—but they serve at their peril, for the Wind of Destruction is fickle and indiscriminate in his wrath, known to consume his allies as well as his enemies.
Although this primordial might occasionally deign to communicate with mortals, his interests lie beyond such mundane beings. Alu Kahn Sang’s voice roars through in the loud places in the plane of Dut, acting as a siren song to elementals who share his anger or would seek to harness the untamed might of elemental destructiveness. Cutters who heed this call find themselves allied with with a force that’s as likely to tear them asunder as to elevate them, for the Wind of Destruction is a true bringer of chaos.
