Is Storm a Goddess? Storm's Divine and Mystic Powers

Storm of the X-Men has been called many things over the years, including "goddess". But there are some who mean that in a literal way! Is there any truth to it? Could Ororo Munroe be a divine being, or are we just simping extra hard?
Let's dive into Storm's past, present and future to examine her mystical and divine attributes and put this idea to the test!

Here's my latest video that covers the "Storm is a goddess" issue! I'll update it any time there's been a new development: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGS1q3qZZqpghKc

[@gangofheroes]

I think if Storm was to embrace and develop her magical potential she would achieve full godhood.

[@chisomemmanuel3468]

Yeah I also agree with that

[@StormKoriHQ]

💯

[@senhor_errante]

I didn't knew I needed this channel until I found it. Kory and Ororo deserve much better recognition

[@StormKoriHQ]

Couldn't agree more and I'm not going anywhere! Our ladies will be elevated

[@HelloDamianRedd]

Once a Goddess, always a Goddess.

[@StormKoriHQ]

You already know

[@monteroprince7672]

I know you said that during the sins of sinister line, where she beat the Emma frost Mecha she didn't just hit it with lightning. She literally wanted to make lightning and ripped every electron from the bonds of the robot and that's what caused the nuclear explosion. She basically ripped it apart at the atomic level. To me it shows the sheer unlimited command she has over her elements. When she called for lighting it ripped itself from already made bonds to come to her aid.

[@Londiebugg]

Black panther comic did Storm soooo good. Thank goodness for coates

[@dree-elsimmons9915]

Storm IS a Goddess... the power of godhead is the key to her actual divinity. Like all gods, they are empowered by faith/worship/belief... Storm is a Goddess and it's time for her to be elevated officially in all media permanently!!! 🤔

[@chisomemmanuel3468]

I agree with that

[@johnark4723]

Permanently in all media? I think your love for the character is clouding your judgment. Do you realize how limited her stories as a character would be?

[@dree-elsimmons9915]

Thor, Wonder Woman, Loki... acknowledgement of her status as a divine feminine/being doesn't mean that she will be limited. It's just time to make her divinity canon... that's what my point was 😊

[@johnark4723]

@@dree-elsimmons9915 When I hear the term elevated, I immediately think an elevation in power. I thought you meant keeping her at her extremes shown in the video like what they tried to do to wonder woman after beating Perpetua. Her being a God in name only is definitely better but still limiting. If the world found out that she was a God, then fear of the xmen would skyrocket so she can't be there anymore and she can't go back to Wakanda because of how massive the power imbalance with the other nations would become. I also still think that "all media" part will definitely limit the creativity of creators, since they'll have to take that into account in any story they want to tell.

[@guruuvy]

I think Oshtur favors Storm’s family because she is Storm’s direct ancestor! Storm and Oshtur stongly resemble each other too!

[@StormKoriHQ]

That part

[@redpapi3541]

Thing is her ancestral history is so unique beyond any X-men and I'm shocked there is not a story written currently even on Disney/Marvel's tv and movie platform. The Goddess Oshtur created magic for humans to learn and she favored Ororo's bloodline with highest magical potential to learn powerful spells and invoke her name at will. Along with her son Agamotto. Ororo is direct descendant of those high sorcerers and has the same ability. When she is calling out saying "Goddess" she is like invoking. I think she is calling out to Gaea as well. Ororo shares Gaea's ability of spiritually connected to the life forces of earth. They both control the forces of nature. Storm powers in nature are mystical and spiritual God powers. She has the mutant gene but I truly wonder is the gene itself tied to her powers or not because a person can have a mutant gene just in them but it can just sit and not manifest to any form of power growth or physical altering. I wonder if her mutant gene itself is actually energy manipulation though because of her ability to do that without calling on atmospheric weather, and her control over the forces of nature is link to her ancestral power as well as her spiritual Hadari Yao power. A lot of questions there but for now, she is known as the omega level mutant of weather manipulation that she is omega in with all forms of energy that govern the weather and the Hadari Yao of Africa. She has been using magical abilities lately. Usually these universal powerful beings possesses like Phoenix always after Jean or somebody related to her. Then Gods like Chthon who messed with the Scarlet Witch, but Storm is the only mutant who seem to have three major powers that is planetary, universal and spiritual that she naturally possess without the aid of some entity or God in terms of possession. It would be interesting to see marvel comics dive deep in her magic ability and heritage in real time as well as the MCU.

[@The92Ghost]

I am pretty sure she is linked to Oshtur by blood/family heritage. They resemble each-other too closely. Storm is definitely someone who wields Oshtur's blood in my opinion even if it is diluted by the many fertilization.

[@cclintrich]

Man I love you videos! Did you know I read an article recently saying that Storm is a potential Omega level mutant! I thought that argument was done with years ago. Can you prove or do a video speaking on the Omega theme, so ppl can stop calling her potential! But acknowledge her....

[@StormKoriHQ]

I didn't know this was still something in question lol. But definitely! I got you!

[@onyx081]

The people who call her a "potential omega level mutant" clearly don't read comics because she been confirmed on panel as an omega level mutant.

[@parrisxsummers]

I think we could look at it like Mortal Kombat. Raiden is a god that sometimes becomes mortal (Thor) Liu kang is a mortal that sometimes becomes a god (Storm) and Liu kang, without his godhood has power enough to defeat godlike beings.

[@StormKoriHQ]

That's perfect and don't be surprised if I use this analogy in the future. Thank you!

[@out4meeify]

The short answer is YES. She is a goddess

[@a.ColesEntertainment]

They should've given her durability and she would've been OP🙌🏽

[@StormKoriHQ]

For real. Right now she's more of a glass cannon lol.

[@ogkush1916]

She lowkey has it or access. Her body adjusts to all these extreme temps ect she could use lightening , pressure around her body or just become the elements. Plus with her witchcraft durability would be an easy access. Plus she could heal herself

[@a.ColesEntertainment]

@@ogkush1916 That's dope, then she can rival Captain Marvel, Thor or even the hulk 😩👌🏽

[@ogkush1916]

@@a.ColesEntertainment she's taken hulk out with lightening b4..... with her magic and mutant powers (similar to scarlet witch) she could draw all the energy from Captain Marvel, making her mortal.. as with her mutant abilities she's drawn power from suns/stars into herself... n with magic the possibilities are endless.. outside of that anything that breath and needs a heart or brain to live she can kill/attack. Her abilities give her power over air, electricity all that runs through living beings. She can see ppls nervous system, attack their brain, heart of other organs and cells with said electricity, air/pressure... Thor would be hard to beat and they have been shown in the comics to be friends and someone thor respects. He called her once to create a sun for a planet whos sun died or something but with that said. Shed have to fry him internally or use pressure to crush him or implode him.. she can also just make any atmosphere /planet unlivable. N stop of explode any living beings heart. If its to the death n quick death she can take out anyone who has n need organs to live.

[@a.ColesEntertainment]

@@ogkush1916 Thanks mahn, this information was insightful 👌🏽although in the real world (MCU) they going to limit all of that, hopefully she'll be the next big ting like scarlet witch😩there's toooo much potential for Storm and even for Cyclops if they explore more into there abilities

[@StormTheeOmega]

Do you think she’ll have any part to play in that new gods comic book Hickman is writing? Given what her goddess name means and they mentioned the term/organization “balance of the natural order” in those issues already few times

[@redpapi3541]

She was featured at the end of Thor #3 and will be in Thor #4. He refers to her as the Goddess of Thunder. She has always been part of Thorcorp I believe but it seems he is recruiting again for this. That is Ewing I believe tho.

[@StormTheeOmega]

@@redpapi3541 I hope not, she’s so much more then goddess of thunder.

[@ampocalypsew3883]

The things i hate about how the currect state of what the xmen are doing, is making her a pass around to most other mutants. Its bad enough she dumbed T'Challa bc she believed she cant trust him even though she has been shown of distrust in both the country of Wakanda and to her husband (now ex) Also while she has a new lover, he seems more like a black version of Paul from spiderman.

[@Itachi45481]

I would assume she has the potential if she ever wanted to pursue it be it seems not her style

[@StormKoriHQ]

I mention this in the video but I'll say it here; Marvel Comics (and really, all comics from the Big 2) plays fast and loose with who is and isn't a god depending on the era of comics, the specific run, and the general direction of the marvel universe at any given time. it's all up to the whims of whoever is writing (insert character/storyline here). Keep that in mind before you rip me a new one about anything stated in this video lol.

@sovereign2989 you heard wtf I said. Reread it.

I don’t think she is a Goddess. I’m aware of her potential godhood, but she is most def being shown as an omega level mutant FIRST. Especially in this Krakoan era. OMEGA

[@GuardianGrarl]

God(dess) in Marvel, in movies and especially comics, ain't as complicated or hard to define as Marvel probably thinks it is. Its a being that due to parentage, faith by non-immortal beings or a combination of those two acquired and developed abilities & powers putting it above said beings. At least that's my take. (Also, ah may have stated something the video stated anyway but oh well)

[@justindesue9512]

I think that the godhead blessing made her somethin like a CONDUIT of sorts, making it so that she can tap into & channel that power thru herself, making her a living vessel of.... power pretty much. I mean the examples u shown on ur video (spectacular btw) show multiple examples of her calling on ahskur or even her magical ancestors to amplify or at times sometimes completely transform her power level.... the fact the she can call on them at will & it travels thru her like a actual conduit is pretty much the perfect example of a "vessel for power". That's literally no different than Scarlett witch, Dr strange, or any other magical user that gets their magic from spells and literally syphoning power out of other dimensions or dimensional beings and chaneeling tht power thru them to use as their own...... I'm not seeing the difference with Storm in tht category seeing as how she's shown doing the same thing multiple times. With that being said, ur video made me change my view on me saying she is a goddess.... I now don't think she is. But instead, like I said, the blessing the Goddess granted her ancestors was the godhead gift that gave her bloodline, including Storm the ability to be able to tap into her divine power as a gift for serving her so well all those thlusands of years ago.... she just didn't kno about it and was lucky enough to be born with mutant powers to hold her over till finding out more about who she is and what blessing her ancestors got tht got past down to her lol Also I see kno difference between her or a demi god.... demi god is born with the power of a God and part human.... Storm herself was born with literally the power of the God as well..... only thing thts different is how they have the power of each God..... Demi Gods has it thru blood.... Storm has it through her bloodline being literally touched by a God. Now, idk about you but I would much rather be touched by a god cuz that literally shows that they have good intentions on what they are doing and is doing it to be kind and chz they want too..... being a demi isn't really special anymore cuz gods be fuqin everythang hahaha🤷🏾‍♂️ that's not really saying much but for a god to bless someone with divine power tht means they would had to take the time and thought to give tht to a human, u kno.... demi gods aren't really thought about to be made as special.... they just are made by accidents whenever gods wanna dip into the more fragile category lol So to clarify.... she can call on gods to ENHANCE her power... just like a witch or sorcerer can, she can call on gods to HAVE literal god power, she can become a goddess herself without calling on ancestors or other gods by being powered up and taking the faith of other and letting tht faith fuel her..... Look at each of those examples.... each one of those examples u could legit call examples of being a CONDUIT.... just like Strange, Wanda, witches, mages.... they are all literally conduits who takes powers from other worlds/dimensions/beings and use it for themselves as if it's their power. Only difference is... this gift with Storm isnt magically learned like with witches, but this gift was physically given to her, which makes it a legit inherent power, and i think enherently being able to call on certain gods at whim makes her leagues above magical users at base power anyways... the godhead gift, I would guess, also makes it easier for her to tap into her mystical heritage side as well, which would explain throughout the years we've seen her say some of their names for a boost without any training or even knowing about her magic side what's so ever... just kinda came naturally to her.... like instinct! I'm guessing the godhead prolly makes her tap into all energies easier not just divine, seeing as how divine power is considered magic, and if that's correct, then these villains are gon be in for a world of hurt when going against someone who is touched by God and making it way easier and a breeze to tap into and channel all types of mystical and divine energy withought needing spells, candles, rhymes, set up of any kind with certain energies. A human being born to be a literal, living vessel who is literally born to be a conduit for pure mystical and divine energies.... think about it... just a direct link to those powers without any hacks or training like magical users do in order to go thru short cuts to get power quickly.... Storm would be just raw, unfiltered, untamppered with power at its truest form, straight from multiple sources, flowing threw her. That seems more lethal than a demi god or even some actual gods. Like an attack while channeling ashkur and all her ancestors at once just seems extinction level catastrophic and Storm is known for combing her attacks Shoot, ur video just made me think she's even more powerful than I did before without me thinking she's a goddess lol Good vid my guy and sorry for the long reply... idk how to write short hahaha

[@Lugbzurg]

This faith power-up is sounding a lot like The Power of Friendship or Goku's Spirit Bomb with extra steps! 😅 Her look and personality remind me of someone I've been writing, and even with the the claustrophobia! Though, the powers are much more... stealth-focused, though they are still pretty wispy!

[@StormKoriHQ]

You just gave me an idea for a short lol

[@RicanNY7]

The word God/Goddess I feel should be an immortal with their own set of powers.

[@StormKoriHQ]

that would at least make things easier to follow lol

[@RegentofArrako]

That’s what I said. She doesn’t have the physical aspects of a God. She is an omega level mutant FIRST if anything. If she were a goddess then throw away her mutant card. There’s not point of being an omega level mutant if you’re a goddess

[@StormKoriHQ]

What are some Marvel characters who you think fit that criteria?

[@JustInfiniteYoutube]

Is we look at goddess/godhood is when people believe in you thier worshipping imbues you with power and wise versa. I mean it makes sense if that wasnt possible then you can easily say the other. Gods like thor thats a different ball game

[@AuthorJohnADouglas]

She’s not a Goddess, shes a mutant, a really powerful one, but still human in nature, if shes a Goddess, that means Hulk is a God of destruction, since he’s the direct creation of The one above all, and his body is referred to as “the god flesh”

[@OpticalSorcerer]

Hot take: I'm not a fan of Storm's magic heritage. It blurs the lines between mutant and goddess, like Marvel conflated two characters. The sci-fi/fantasy mesh just didn't work for me.

[@richiepommells180]

Xavier said yrs ago he told storm she is not a goddess but a mutant with a x gene Than it’s proven in the sins of sinisters storyline storm has a dormant powers of magic It is kind of strange for a mutant ho come we don t see no other mutant with the powers Of weather manipulation but only storm Storm had her own Thor hammer before Notice Mother Nature Thor mom she a goddess can control the weather just like storm Coindence? But the kicker is a goddess has to be immortal and storm is not Not sure if she has divine ki in her Storm been a goddess probably not accurate

[@MegaConkster]

You had me all the way from the beginning right up to talking about her current incarnation where all the mutants have their memories stored with Cerebro. Every mutant that has been "resurrected" is nothing more than a clone with implanted memories, and that means that there is no longer anything divine about Storm. She is as much a mockery of the original goddess as the monster that Iron Man and Reed Richards made of Thor during the first Civil War storyline. Terrible. I wish they would just get around to rebooting the mutant timeline already and ditch the current nonsense. Can't stand it, and I have no respect for anyone that gets behind it.

[@shepardoakenshieldprime3357]

[@LarryDWilmore79]

I perfer her not to be a literal God so tapping in and out of it is good enough. It’s what give her room to grow and not be scheduled for her continuous end like Phoenix and now the Scarlet Witch and the other Gods who are truly op to the point they can only be mentioned or become as boring as Thor is now. Scarlet, as many fans know..should know, stated that she been witnessed Storm unconsciously tapping into her magical prowess and we have witnessed it. It was times when Storm powers was incapable of harming her foe and then she cried out to the “Bright Lady” and omitted more power than needed. Storm has also cried out to Gaia. In the Scarlet Witch series they was simply letting us know that’s what it was this entire time which many thought it was a prayer for strength only but learned that it was magic behind it..something Storm didn’t even realize herself.
