Epiphany

Post by NickD »

I believe it was in 2001 when I was living in England that the worst storm in recorded (measureable) history hit the country. I was on my way to New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit. More recently, it was only a few weeks after I left the general region that Cyclone Nargis hit Mynamar, responsible for over 100,000 deaths. A couple of days before going to Japan, a 6.8 earthquake hit Tokyo. A day or two after arriving in Japan, Tokyo was then hit by a typhoon, somewhat unseasonably. A day later, China was rocked by a massive 8.0 earthquake, killing around 70,000. Furthmore, whereever I go, it seems to rain.

Now, it may just be the drugs talking, but the only logical explaination that I can see is that I am, in fact, unknowingly the god of natural disasters and I am somehow causing these events to occur in areas around me. It would also explain why crows seem to follow me everywhere, laughing their sadonic little laughs.

I must learn to control my godly powers instead of having them fire off randomly.

I have uncovered Mayhem's terrorist plot to send a Harbinger of Disaster to assassinate our country's leaders with Supernatural Powers.

The secret police are on their way.

Also: Clearly NickD is the incarnation of Talos the Stormlord. There's no other explanation. :)

I must be Famine then.
Droughts and forest fires followed me through all of my undergraduate days. Never heard of three weeks without rain in Wales until I got there.

In its current random state, it doesn't appear to hit where I currently am, but in areas nearby, areas I have recently been or areas I am about to go. The worst hit areas seem to be places I don't particularily like (I suspect Nargis was meant for Cambodia).

You'd have to send me to Maryland or something and hope for the best. But I like Washington DC, so don't hold your breath!
