Notes

• Activation base is a fixed mana value.
• When used on an Ogre with low health this spell triggers a special death animation for the ogre similar to the one during Varric's first version of Hawke's flight from Lothering. On other ordinary sized enemies who die due to this spell, the death animation is of a single hand which crushes them. Confirmed by two users when used on the ogre in the Darkspawn group at Sundermount, Act 2, and the trap room ogre in the Deep Roads.
