"Behold your doom, Tom. I am Sephir, monster of the storm!"
- Sephir
Sephir the Storm Monster is a tornado Beast who features alongside the Super Beast as the Evil Beasts who take part in the Battle of the Beasts. A Beast bought forth by Malvel to assist Seth, Sethrina and the Super Beast in winning the Battle of the Beasts so the dark wizard can access the Book of Worlds, Sephir is a raging storm who lacks a physical form, and as such lacks a clear weak point, or even any point that can be harmed. At the centre of the Evil Beast is an orb of energy, which is responsible for holding the Beast together, which houses Malvel when the dark wizard is using his magic to create the Beast. Sephir's designation as Beast is debatable as Sephir has both the eyes and voice of Malvel and is created by a constant stream of magic from the dark wizard, making it likely the Storm Monster is merely a puppet construct created by Malvel. His name, depending on pronunciation, may be based on the word "zephyr".
Sephir the Storm Monster[]
Sephir rolled across the hills of Avantia, hiding in the Central Plains until he was summoned to battle as Malvel's contingency plan, the Beast's very presence scattering the flock and sheepdog, Max, of Simon, a shepherd of Avantia, who was able to survive by clinging to a tree branch, while his animals are presumed dead. Sephir took pleasure in this, sneering as he advanced on his victims. As Sephir fits a specific role in Malvel's plan, what he was doing roaming Avantia is unknown, but it's likely he was potentially scouting the battleground.

Once the Super Beast had been defeated and the component Beasts retreated, Sephir emerged as Malvel's ace in the hole, being summoned by Seth and travelling across the plains as a thundercloud at incredible speed, then taking his true form and introducing himself to Tom. Roaring, Sephir manifested an arm from his body and extended it towards the Book of Worlds, absorbing it into his body while Ferno and Tom rose up to meet the new foe. Tom and Elenna dived into the storm, making the Storm Monster howl in anger and pain, the Avantians's presence within him causing anguish. Furious, Sephir strengthened the gale within his body, pinning Elenna to the side of the storm. Tom continued down towards the Book of Worlds, which Sephir pulled away while laughing and telling Tom he lacked the strength to win. Tom attempted to slash at Sephir but was unable to harm him. Tom spotted the heart of energy of the Beast and forced himself deeper. The power of Sephir grew closer to the base of the storm, and as such the orb being deep down forced Tom to face the power of the Beast. Tom was able to use the Golden Armour to survive the power of Sephir. Despite the Storm Monster's might, Tom was able to hold on to his sword as the Beast tried to rend it away and plunge it into the orb, defeating the Beast. Sephir's body quickly dissipated with the orb destroyed, ending the Battle of the Beasts.
