Maelstrom Deep is large enough to swallow the largest galleon whole.

Overview

Maelstrom Deep (Commontongue), also Barugal (Furytongue \ˈbɑːruːgɔːl\ for lightning tide), also known as The Storm Weaver, is a mighty Titan in the universe. It's name comes from some of its dominant qualities, storm and the ocean. Lore about the Ocean Storm Titan is rare and incomplete, coming primarily from other titans, some Dragons, and fewer Immortals.

History

The Lost Age

Little is known about Maelstrom Deep during the Lost Age, save that it existed and prospered in the Contest Eternal.

The First Age

Maelstrom Deep was defeated in the Foundation War in 1578 FC by other titans who, being manipulated by the Founders, set out to fragment the Ocean Storm Titan. However their victory was interrupted by the Founders and Malestrom Deep was imprisoned. A fragment of its realm body, the Shattered Shores, would be the battleground for one of the most important strategic milestones of the Foundation War.

After its defeat, it was contained within the astral prisons where it has remained ever since.
