Tatalov raises his hand high above his head as it ignites, turning into its flaming skeletal form. He places it against his chest. His body seems to emit smoke as the sound of his heartbeat begins to echo out from him in waves. Those effected are launched away as the heartbeat reaches them, as a small blast of blue flame explodes from them.
By focusing on his own anger, Tatalov senses the anger of others and expells it from the zone, taking the person with it.
