17 figures

Impundulu (Lightning Bird)

With a single beat of its wings, it can call forth dark clouds and unleash torrents of rain.

Rain Bird

This ethereal music is believed to be the key to its rain-summoning abilities, each note a plea or command to the heavens to release their life-giving waters upon the earth.

Amemasu

By thrashing its massive body, the creature is said to generate violent storms that churn the waters and whip up fierce winds, creating treacherous conditions for any boats or settlements near the shore.

Ikuchi

It is said to have the ability to manipulate weather patterns, conjuring storms and violent seas at will.

Inkanyamba

These storms, characterized by swirling dark clouds, fierce winds, and torrential rains, are believed to be manifestations of the Inkanyamba's mood or will.

Shachihoko

The belief is that these creatures possess the power to summon rain, which led to their reputation as guardians against fire – a constant threat in traditional Japanese wooden architecture.

Umibōzu

It is said to have the power to summon storms at will, churning the waters into violent maelstroms that can easily capsize ships and drag entire crews to their doom.

Anzû

Its imposing form is often described as having wings that span the heavens, capable of creating hurricanes with a single flap.

Pamola

The creature is known for creating fierce storms and bone-chilling cold, serving as a deterrent to those who might approach the sacred peak without proper respect or preparation.

Labbu

The roar of Labbu is likened to the sound of a thousand thunderstorms, and its breath is said to be capable of creating hurricanes.

Tecumbalam

Towering over the lush jungles of Central America, this colossal toucan-like being is said to possess wings that span the width of ancient ceiba trees, creating thunderous gusts of wind with each powerful flap.

Adar Llwch Gwin

These griffon-like creatures stand taller than horses, with powerful legs ending in razor-sharp talons, and possess massive wings capable of generating powerful gusts of wind.

Minokawa

Its wingspan is said to blot out the stars, and the beating of its wings can cause hurricanes on the earth below.

Rainbow Serpent

in other tellings it is linked to the arrival of the monsoon rains and the cycle of wet and dry seasons.

Hieracosphinx

Its wings, while not used for flight, can create powerful gusts of wind when unfurled, adding to its intimidating aura.

Blue Men of the Minch

The central pattern of Blue Men stories concerns the weather and safety of the Minch itself: accounts describe the strait as calm so long as the Blue Men and their chieftain remain quiet in their underwater homes, but liable to sudden storms when they emerge, at which point they were said to swim out to threaten any vessel whose captain was bold enough to attempt the crossing, aiming to capsize or wreck the ship and drown its crew.

Ryujin

Ryujin's power over the sea is described as being expressed most sharply through weather and tide: in one well-known episode, he is said to raise a violent storm against Prince Yamato Take's fleet after the prince boasts arrogantly about the strait he is crossing, a storm only calmed when the prince's wife sacrifices herself to the sea on his behalf.
