The Six Winds

        My players have embarked on the preparations for a heroquest. The first thing they are doing is trying to gain the Six Winds. They are currently in Prax.

        Now, the Upper Wind is traditionally Gagarth, and could be some other villainous bad wind god associated with the upper reaches of the air. The Lower Wind is the Wind that blows in Hell, and traditionally associated with trolls. Hellroar is possibly a lesser relation of the Lower Wind (and probably will have to stand in in a pinch, unless anyone can make another suggestion).

	But that leaves the Four other winds? Suggestions?
	Currently, as the campaign is set in Prax, the four winds are
	East - Storm Bull
	West - Orlanth (wind god of the Sartarites to the West)
	North - Valind (or another wind god from the cold mountains)
	and
	South - a wind god that has something to do with the ocean? But NOT

Brastalos (she is the goddess of the Seventh Wind).

        Any suggestions for appropriate Praxian analagues to the various winds? I can probably fumble my way through, but I thought I'd see if anyone had any suggestions.

        Cheers
