'''Clutch of Nyogtha''' is a spell that attacks a target, who feels as though a large hand or tentacle is crushing his or her heart; while under such attack, the victim is temporarily paralyzed, as though having a heart attack; if the spell does enough damage to kill the victim, his or her chest ruptures and bursts, and the victim's smoking heart appears in the hand of the caster.  By default the spell is named for [[Nyogtha]].

Alternative names: The Vile Wrench, The Insidious Wrath of the Dark Wizard, Ye Loathsome Tickle.
