I was considering creating a cleric of Aerdrie Faenya when I noticed that the acceptable domains listed for her on the Realmslore forum don't include the Storm domain.

For the most part, I was wondering whether this is just an error, or if there's a reason it isn't included. I'd like to suggest the domain be allowed for clerics of Aerdrie, being that a) she is a goddess of weather, and b) it's one of her domains as per several resources. The spells and ability granted by the domain seem fitting for a cleric of her faith, especially the ability to resist lightning (while in flight) and to cast Gust of Wind, given her air/sky-themed nature.

She does have it according to Faiths and Pantheons.

I haven't been around long enough... but I'd guess that probably that post was drawn up -before- they implemented the Custom Domains. No idea if in-game she has the storm domain or not...
 
I'd agree that she should have the storm domain, not only given that Faiths and Pantheons says so, but due to the overall nature of how she's been described.... storm domain is rather fitting to her character.
 
Any DM thoughts on this?

According to this post: Optional New Domains Override
... the deities with Storm domain are Aerdrie Faenya, Anhur, Auril, Isis, Istishia, Talos, Umberlee.

If her deity entry doesn't indicate this it's because racial deities aren't worth updating. When I was working on the domains I probably said to myself, "I can't even pronounce this. No one is ever going to take a lame elf deity other than Corellon or maybe Sheverash. I'll just skip editing this post."

You people are crazy. I don't see anything wrong with the deity page!
