Fisher King: Difference between revisions

== [[Comic Books]] ==

* The Dreaming, the kingdom of Morpheus in ''[[The Sandman]]''; he literally ''is'' his kingdom, and it obeys his commands and bends to his will. This leads to the inhabitants knowing he was angst- ridden when it rained for months on end.<br /><br />In the spinoff series ''[[Lucifer (comics)|Lucifer]]'', Elaine, guardian spirit of Lucifer's world, inadvertently causes the environment around her to decay when she's angry. When Mazikeen points this out, Elaine controls her temper and the environment is restored.

* Though not always the official ruler of anything, Marvel's [[Storm]] has this effect; her mutant weather-control powers tend to cause local weather to change to reflect her mood. In her past, this caused villagers to worship her as a goddess; unlike a true Fisher Queen, the power is not dependent on her location, though it could be interpreted as being linked to the Earth itself.

* The [[Justice League of America]] once fought Rama Khan, ruler of the hidden magic kingdom of Jarhanpur. Not only was the land a paradise so long as the Khan was happy, he could cause the earth of his country itself to rise up and smack people around when they displeased him. Likewise, the loss of his heir threatened to destroy the entire nation.
