Notes

Triggers the heavy offensive magic cooldown. The base cooldown appears to be 5 minutes. This cooldown can be lowered with Debilitation skill and by learning the Debiliation Mastery feat.
Mind Shout applies all of the effects of Mental Blast. This means that it can deal increased nerve damage, knock its targets out, and cause them to drop held items.
The spell also messages to your neighbouring rooms although they are not affected. (A unearthly scream echoes from the <adjacent room of caster>.)
Causes charges of disturbing the peace when cast in justice areas.

This spell was originally written by GM Rigby, but was only added nearly 13 years later during the Magic 3.0 conversion. It was added thanks to the work of GMs Raesh and Ricinus.
