Nuada

Nuada is a Lesser Deity who claims dominion over the Elemental Plane of Air. He serves in allegiance to the Father, Dagda, in the Pagan pantheon, acting as a conduit of power between the Plane of Air and Dagda's divinity and strength.

Description
The Cloud Maker, believed to have once been a great warrior and mighty King in the age of the fomorians. Said to be the great protector of the skies and wielder of the mythic Sword of Light. Depicted as as a great warrior with a silver bracer/hand.

Known to be the last King of Elysia, before the age of the God Emperors, Nuada is said to have lost his hand and life in the last Fomorian wars, to a dark warrior known as Sreng, a great warrior whom held the blood of both the Fomorians and the Firbolg. In doing so, the Sword of Light was lost with it.

Gifts of the Silver Hand
Like the other entities whom have bestowed their greatest treasures upon Elysia, in order to restore life to the world, Mannán has released the following magical items to the land.

The Hand of Nuada
The lost hand of the Silver King, upon the battlefield in the Last War of the Fomorians. Said to possess great magic and the ability to control the skies and weather, bringing storms upon the lands to smite the enemies of Dagda.

The Sword of Light
Gifted to the Silver Hand by Dagda, the ancient weapon of light and hope, used to carve through the Fomorian armies, has been lost to the lands of Elysia but acts as a beacon of hope and believed that the sentient weapon has aided the birth of life and stifled the darkness within it. Believed not only to possess the power take lives, but also restore it and heal the wounded.
