'''Thwack''' is an instant-death spell that targets a whole group of enemies, stopping the heart (or nearest approximate). Typically, characters that take up the paths of [[Priest]]s and [[Sage]]s are the only humans that learn the whack line, giving the impression of the spell family being a case of "forbidden" magic reserved only for the most pious and disciplined.
