How it works​

The Tempest commands the weather. Right-click the water heart with an empty hand:

  • A click under clear skies calls rain. Rain clouds gather overhead.
  • A sneaking click under clear skies calls a thunderstorm. Thunder rolls in at your whisper!
  • A click in any rain or storm clears the skies. The clouds part at your command.

After each use, the pad needs 20 minutes of real time to settle, like the Chrono Trigger.

Configuration​

These are the defaults in plugins/Runic/runes/tempest.yml. Every rune file also carries the shared settings described in Rune files.
