Rondar_Thunderstorm
            There came a time when RondarStargazer had a problem. He loved one woman and began to have strong feelings towards another.  Not wishing to hurt either, he visited a friend he had met weeks previously.  This wizard provided Rondar with the means to split him into two separate being, one who would remain with the woman he loved, and the other would leave and go with the new love.  The spell worked all too well, creating a twin of Rondar, who left taking the name of Rondar_Sky.
            Sky and his new love were not destined to last. A few days afterward, a pair of demons attacked them.  In the battle, Sky was grievously injured and left for dead, while his love was carried off. The encounter had a profound effect on Sky; the demon?s taint to infected his soul. His ability to heal was corrupted, splitting it. He could still heal, but he could now also inflict harm by absorbing energy from the person he laid hands upon. This ability grew exponentially as the taint spread across his essence. In a few days time, he could absorb any energy in his vicinity, from any source.  Finally, his love contacted him and let him know she was alive, but changed as well. Their love was no more.
            Wandering the Realms, Sky felt himself slipping into darkness. His ability completely out of control due to the demon?s taint and the rage of his heritage as a garou kept within him, he knew could not prevent his turn to evil. He wandered aimlessly for weeks, avoiding contact with anyone. Finally, Sky came across a battle site, and saw a spirit hovering over a blasted corpse. Being able to communicate with spirits, he spoke with it. Learning the corpse was the body of the spirit; the body had been destroyed in a pitched battle while highly energized. This power was being held within the spirit, keeping it in the material world. Knowing he could tap into that energy to power his healing ability, Sky offered to try to regenerate and revive the body of the spirit. The spirit agreed and began to feed energy into Sky, who used it to fuel his failing healing ability. Over the next half hour, Sky worked on the corpse, restoring it to a full body, but still devoid of life. Taking the chance, that he would die as well, Sky used a spark of his own life force to revive the corpse. The grateful spirit dove through the form of Sky, using the last of the energy it held to banish the demonic taint that was consuming his soul.
            Upon recovering from his act of charity, Sky realized he was free of the demon's taint but he was still changed. His healing power was now permanently split, leaving him with his energy absorbing ability as well as the ability to heal or harm, as he preferred. He changed his name to reflect to inner turmoil he had been through, calling himself Thunderstorm. He felt it appropriate; since a thunderstorm brings life through rain, and death through floods, lightning and tornados. Continuing on his wanderings, he searched for his place in the Realms and a purpose to his life.
      Eventually, the strain of keeping his energy from being consumed by demon 'gifted' ability grew to great for Thunder. He allowed it to fully consume his life force to prevent further harm to his friends and family. His lifeless corpse was discovered hours later by a friend and magically cast into stasis for almost a year. At last, the friend had found the secret of the energy draining ability, and finally caused it to be removed from Thunder. Then Thunder was magically revived to life. The time spent dead has affected Thunder's memories, he only remembers vague shadows of people once friends. He is once again only a normal garou, but gray black where his 'brother' RondarStargazer is still gray-brown. The memories he inherited as a clone of Rondar have faded most of all, to the point he can sometimes know things Rondar once did, but not know exactly how he knows these things. Once again starting over, he searches for meaning to his life and some adventures to occupy his time.
