Dreadful Wail
Your Dreadful Wail is so strong that most foes will be defeated by being subjected to it. Dreadful Wail deals massive damage to all nearby foes, although the damage does vary. Activating this power leaves you drained of endurance, and unable to recover endurance for a while.
Howl
A short range, but powerful sonic attack.
Scream
Your Scream can cause serious damage to a target, while weakening his resistance to further damage.
Screech
By bursting forth with this hypersonic Screech, you can disorient a target.
Shockwave
You can call forth a tremendous Shockwave that can knock down foes and deal some smashing damage in a wide cone area.
Shout
You blast your foe with a tremendous Shout, damaging him and reducing his damage resistance.
Shriek
You let forth a quick Shriek, damaging your target and weakening his damage resistance.
Siren's Song
You send forth a subsonic pulse which causes your foes to fall unconscious and take some minor damage. Your foes will remain unconscious for a good while, but will waken if disturbed.
