thunderer

One who rumbles

A thunderer is one who thunders, either literally producing or associated with thunder, or figuratively speaking or acting with great force and authority.

The word most often appears as a title or epithet for gods of thunder in various mythologies—Zeus in Greek tradition, Thor in Norse, Jupiter in Roman.

The thunderer hurled his bolt from the clouds.

It can also describe a person whose voice or rhetoric has commanding, booming power, like an orator whose speeches shake the room.
