This power sends a jolt of chaotic energy surging around the room. It does quite good damage, but only if used against targets that rely upon delicate circuitry. Ordinary, meat-based opponents won't even notice that you tried to zap them...

Implementing this power has required the creation of a new NPC race, robot. Existing mobiles will need to be identified and converted to the new race; a robot, borg or cyberpunk that can't be damaged with this spell should be reported as a bug.
