Drought

When Tor withholds rain, the land grows parched and brittle, and old grievances surface with the dust.

Rain and snow are Tor's life-giving gifts. But what if he withholds them — or cannot give them freely? The Stream dries up, the Cistern runs low, and crops come in stunted; generate Surplus with disadvantage. Everything and everyone goes unwashed, and disease spreads. Past droughts have been broken by the right offering or quest; a spirit of the wild might know the details. Left unbroken, crops and gardens fail, livestock die or must be slaughtered, and the steading generates no Surplus at all.
