![[BoreasPic.png]] # Boreas _Primordial of Winter | [[Baba Yaga]]'s Beloved_ ## Summary The mighty primordial of winter and the north wind, one of the most powerful elemental beings in existence. He was the beloved of [[Baba Yaga]]—their romance representing a union between primordial power and arcane mastery that might have reshaped the cosmos. When [[Mab]] and [[Oberon]] journeyed to the unclaimed winter realm of the Feywild, they encountered Boreas in his prime. Driven by ambition to claim dominion over winter, Mab used dark magic to steal the primordial's immense powers, killing him in the process. Baba Yaga witnessed the brutal murder of her beloved. The stolen winter magic corrupted Mab's sanity, transforming her into a dangerous and unpredictable force. More tragically, Boreas's death shattered Baba Yaga, transforming her from whatever she had been into the twisted arch-crone of legend. The loss of her primordial lover, combined with witnessing his murder, created the bitter, vengeful witch who would plague the multiverse for millennia. In many ways, his death created two of the most dangerous beings in existence—the mad Winter Queen and the vengeful Baba Yaga. %% ## At a Glance _Deceased.
