Raishin the Thunderlord

Raishin the Thunderlord is a main character and boss from the Wrath of the Dragon campaign. Raishin serves as the left-hand of the Dragon Lord Vesolath during the campaign, and the players must battle him on multiple occasions.

Lore

Raishin is the left-hand of the Dragon Lord Vesolath, and is in charge of commanding his armies, acting as a general for the Dragon Lord. Raishin is also a master of lightning magic (hence the name), and is capable of performing stormbending feats vastly above any mere mortal mage. The Thunderlord can call down storms of lightning to cover an entire village in an instant. His martial and magical prowess, combined with his brilliantly tactical mind, make him an extreme threat to the lands of Cendall, and the Dragonblood Mage.

Boss Battles

During the player('s) first encounter with Raishin, they are fatigued and likely taken by surprise, as they have just spent a good while defending the town of Midscott from the Thunderlord's forces. Near the end of the invasion, Raishin himself enters the fray, decimating most of the town's defenders instantly with a massive crash of lightning. Lucian and Allistar do well to fend off the Thunderlord's attacks however, and he is forced to retreat.
