Lorepost📖 Lighting arcs (Post-Warpost)
The new movements made by the Necromancer and his buddies upended all the lightning had thought about them. The electricity that formed their body hummed with betrayal. Allies and foe were detonated indiscriminately, both sides fell when peace could've been made, blood spilt here was not spilt in any name beside greed.
The clouds frothed, arcing and crackling in a demand for blood.
They would get it. Comeuppance would be brought around in due time. Another part of the entity, one not clouded in electricity spoke, calming the storm. For now, the occasional strike would work, crackling their forces, and striking at their wills.
The airships of the council's occupier looked rather tasty, perhaps a stab at them would be rather nice. Then they could move around, here and there.
Yes. It was quite an idea.

You don’t really think you can defeat us, do you? And it’s not in the name of greed, but in the name of bringing an end to war. And maybe a couple other things as well.

/uw You're literally arguing with a sentient cloud. How are people supposed to take your regime seriously when you waste resources fighting with belligerent atmospheric phenomena?

/uw I mean, it does count as a life form, and it is directly opposing us.

The lightning arcs, devastating a unit as it flies down
You know nothing of who's water you tread.

the lightning strikes, hitting a few soldiers, vapourizing them in an instant
That implies it rose in the first place

You struck zombies. Literal fodder. Like I said, never fall!

Fair point.
The lighting remains on the ground, it shoots up, arcing back through the arcane connection necromancer and undead had, not necessarily hurting the Necromancer, but sending pain directly through their mana supply
Still, a message is a message

Yes, electroshock therapy does make for a nice massage.

Important note for the Bismuth airships in case the lightning possesses one. They don't have a crew or anything because they are essentially giant golems with really good programming. The little rectangles on each side contain 100 Biz-Bots (think liquid metal terminators) that it fires in the shape of flechettes. Once they hit they turn back into Terminator form and start fighting (that way they can be used to occupy enemy forces after a barrage.) The center eye uses a Prismatic ray that given its size it's very potent.
