An attack or ability that damages the Mana Meter of the victim. Other secondary effects may come in to play, but this is the ability's primary purpose. A fighter-type character capable of this trope and capable of spamming it in a very short time will be able to remove a Squishy Wizard anytime. This makes it a favored ability of the Mage Killer. Mana Drain is a subtrope where the mana is given to the caster. A subtrope of Meta Power, as it deals with impacting a supernatural ability. |

In Sunrider 4: The Captain's Return, the High Roller's pulse guns can be upgraded to deplete small amounts of the target's Energy with every shot. Sola's Reactor Shot affection perk makes the Arch Angel deplete a huge chunk of the target's Energy when she shoots them in the back. | |

Starcraft has the Science Vessel's EMP, which drains all energy and shields. Dark Archons have a Feedback ability, which causes literal Mana Burn, instantly draining all energy and dealing damage equal to lost energy. Which leads to a 1-shot-kill against targets with more mana than hitpoints. In StarCraft II the Ghost inherits the EMP, changed to only drain 100 energy and shields, and the High Templar inherits Feedback unchanged. |

Guild Wars has Mesmers, who are masters of this trope. They have many, many ways to inflict this on enemies, so much that it becomes a valid strategy to completely deny your enemy any mana at all, rendering him effectively useless while the Mesmer is free to pound away. Some examples include but are not limited to: Energy Burn/Energy Surge, both of which are this attacks, only with the added effect that the number of mana burned is multiplied, then dealt to the enemy's health. Doesn't hurt that the damage from these skills are also Armor Piercing. Spirit Shackles: A particularly annoying skill which chips away at the target's mana every time he attacks. A careless victim can easily find himself with no mana at all in very short order. Energy Tap/Energy Drain: Textbook Mana Drain attacks used for energy management as well as annoying your enemy. Ether Lord: A rather bizarre skill that first empties the caster of all mana, then rapidly drains the enemy's mana while filling up the caster's mana. Rangers have the Debilitating Shot skill, the sole purpose of which is to deal a large chunk of mana damage to the target. Necromancers have the Wither elite skill, which drains both the target's health and mana. However, since mana constantly regenerates, it effectively just stops their regeneration, or at least slows it down (depending on the class and amount of natural regeneration you get). |

Final Fantasy XII: The reaper-type enemies and the Demon Wall boss have the "Annul" ability, which reduces your MP to 0. Stepping on a Leech trap will also greatly reduce your MP. While not an attack per se, the Rafflesia boss battle is locked to a state where your party members have their MP drained overtime. And rather quick too; it's basically the status effect Sap if it affects the MP. There is no point trying to get it back with Ether, since it will drain faster than you heal, so you have to use items to heal or remove status ailments. The Esper Ultima can do a similar thing (among many other stat screw-ups) in her boss battle. |

In World of Warcraft, Priests and some enemies have an ability called Mana Burn, which removes the target's mana and then deals damage equal to half the mana lost. Hunters and Warlocks also used to be able to affect enemy mana (but the latter used a Mana Drain for it) while Human Priests had an additional ability named Feedback (based on a Warcraft III passive ability that causes attacks to burn some mana), but all three were eventually removed entirely. Blood Elf Spell Breakers and Arcane Towers have the Feedback ability, which reduces mana and deals damage equal to the mana lost with every attack, in addition to the damage they already do. The wisp's self-destruct ability destroys mana, and damages summoned units. |

Skyrim: Shock elemental Destruction spells deal damage to the target's Magicka as well as Health, making them ideal for combating other spellcasters. The "Equilibrium" spell converts your Health into Magicka. This is very exploitable, as it allows nigh-infinite grinding of the Restoration skill if the caster is also casting a healing spell at the same time. |

In Warframe, Magnetic attacks will drain energy from players and reduce the shield of mooks. Various enemies have variations of it; Infested Ancient Disruptors can poke the player with their tentacle to drain energy, Councilor Vay Hek will spam a 100% mana burn attack in the later phases of his boss fight, and Parasitic Eximus enemies will slowly deplete the energy of nearby players. Grineer Galleons often have special doors with a scanning sensor that will completely drain the energy and shields of players who walk through it without destroying the sensor. | |

Exalted: Certain Charms can do this, i.e. the Abyssals' Splinter of The Void. It can be upgraded into Mana Drain. Essence-Igniting Nerve Strike from Fire Dragon Style is a very mean bad-touch effect that deals damage equal to your enemy's Personal Essence pool, maxing out at twice your Essence stat. This can be very mean, especially since it bypasses armour, but becomes hilariously unhelpful against Alchemicals, who typically don't have much of a Personal Essence pool because of how their Charms worknote they have to manually install them, and most of them require a commitment of Personal Essence to run. A combat-specced Alchemical likely has no personal motes whatsoever and does everything with his peripheral pool. Cecelyne's Stone-Flayer Touch destroys Essence in equal amount to health damage inflicted. It also hurts gods and demons, even if they are dematerialized. |

If this happens, in the next turn the enemy will perform Dream Eater, which fully depletes their TP meter, rendering them unable to perform any special skills.

The Legend of Zelda: Zelda II: The Adventure of Link: Glowing floating skulls drain magic from Link upon contact. Link has no items that are usable outside the overworld map, so all his extra-super powers require mana to use. In addition, the skulls do just enough damage that if you have full life to use the sword beam, you can't anymore. They can be killed and give a lot of XP for early dungeon enemies, but they require a lot of hits, even with the highest attack power. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past: Certain baddies in the dungeons drain magic from your meter when they hit you. The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: There are tentacle-hands that would grab you and drain your magic (which would gradually regrow), as well as floating skulls that, when touched, prevent you from using any items. Which, of course, are the only thing that can kill them. |

Final Fantasy II introduced the concept to the series in the form of the Sap spell, which, interestingly enough, combines it with a Percent Damage Attack. When cast, it cuts targets' current MP based on the caster's spell level.mathSpecifically, it's reduced to 1/[caster's Sap level + 1]. | |

Final Fantasy VI has the Rasp spell. Interestingly, some enemies and even a few bosses can also be defeated by reducing their MP to zero. Against these foes, Rasp and its sister spell Osmose end up surprisingly useful, since opponents that Turn Red in any capacity will only do so when their HP is running low. The enemies affected by this appear to be more magical, such as: Moonforms, Clouds, and the Skull Dragon bosses. | |

Many enemies in Final Fantasy X-2 have abilities that target your party's MP, and likewise your party can do this - either by burning it or draining it. Specific examples are the Gunner's "Target MP" and "Quarter Pounder" abilities. | |

Persona Persona 2: The Great Father has a trick where he randomly switches from damaging your health to damaging your SP instead. While this does spare your HP for a few turns, it actually creates more issues because SP is how you use all skills, and endgame Personas already cost a ton of SP to use. Treasure Chests in Persona 4 sometimes contains traps which halves your SP. In Persona 3 Reload, the fight against Takaya was updated to give the boss a new Desperation Attack: Paradise of Quietus. In addition to dealing heavy Almighty damage and inflicting Fear, the attack reduces the SP of everyone hit to 1. |

Heroes of Might and Magic: In the third game, Wraiths will burn 2 spell points per Wraith in the stack from the enemy hero at the start of their turn. Imps in the fifth game have the Mana Destroyer ability, which burns a large amount of mana from the opponent at the start of combat. Their upgraded forms instead have a Mana Drain effect, with Familiars giving it to your hero and Vermin distributing it among friendly spellcasters. |

The Elder Scrolls The series in general has both Magicka draining spells as well as Magicka absorbing spells, which transfer the stolen Magicka to your own pool. In Daggerfall, a gameplay quirk relating to Magicka absorption means that if you absorb Magicka over your own capacity, you can die. Skyrim: Shock elemental Destruction spells deal damage to the target's Magicka as well as Health, making them ideal for combating other spellcasters. The "Equilibrium" spell converts your Health into Magicka. This is very exploitable, as it allows nigh-infinite grinding of the Restoration skill if the caster is also casting a healing spell at the same time. |

Pokémon gives us Spite (which reduces PPnote 2 to 5 PP (randomized) on Generation II-III, 4 PP on Generation IV onwards from the last move the opponent used), Grudge (removes all PP of the move that KO'd the user), and the passive ability Pressure (increases opponent's PP usage by 1). In Pokémon Emerald, Phoebe of the Elite 4 uses this as part of her strategy, having all of the mentioned moves and a few Pokémon with the Pressure ability to wear down the player's PP. Gigantamax Duraludon has G-Max Depletion, which burns 2 PP of the target's last move used while also dealing Dragon-type damage. Galarian Slowking has Eerie Spell, a Psychic-type Special-based damaging move that also drains 3 PP from the target's most recently-used move. |

This is a recurring ability type in the Final Fantasy series: Final Fantasy II introduced the concept to the series in the form of the Sap spell, which, interestingly enough, combines it with a Percent Damage Attack. When cast, it cuts targets' current MP based on the caster's spell level.mathSpecifically, it's reduced to 1/[caster's Sap level + 1]. Final Fantasy V introduces the Magic Hammer Blue Magic spell, which halves the target's current MP Final Fantasy VI has the Rasp spell. Interestingly, some enemies and even a few bosses can also be defeated by reducing their MP to zero. Against these foes, Rasp and its sister spell Osmose end up surprisingly useful, since opponents that Turn Red in any capacity will only do so when their HP is running low. The enemies affected by this appear to be more magical, such as: Moonforms, Clouds, and the Skull Dragon bosses. Magic Hammer is a recurring Blue Magic spell that switches between this and Mana Drain depending on the game (in Final Fantasy VII, it drains). Also, Barret's second Level 1 Limit Break, Mindblow, which damages MP without draining. In Final Fantasy Tactics, the Osafune/Bizen Boat's Verse of Oblivion release drains MP from surrounding enemies. Oracles may drain MP as well. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance has Magic Break, Manastrike, and Soul Sphere on top of those mentioned already. The Damage -> MP skill is a sort of inversion, as it redirects incoming damage to the user's mana pool. This is a side effect to the 'Venom' status effect in Final Fantasy IX, as well as rendering the afflicted character unable to act. Manticores in Final Fantasy XI can indirectly perform a this by using Riddle, which lowers max MP by a significant amount. You definitely don't get the MP back when it wears off. Many enemies in Final Fantasy X-2 have abilities that target your party's MP, and likewise your party can do this - either by burning it or draining it. Specific examples are the Gunner's "Target MP" and "Quarter Pounder" abilities. Final Fantasy XII: The reaper-type enemies and the Demon Wall boss have the "Annul" ability, which reduces your MP to 0. Stepping on a Leech trap will also greatly reduce your MP. While not an attack per se, the Rafflesia boss battle is locked to a state where your party members have their MP drained overtime. And rather quick too; it's basically the status effect Sap if it affects the MP. There is no point trying to get it back with Ether, since it will drain faster than you heal, so you have to use items to heal or remove status ailments. The Esper Ultima can do a similar thing (among many other stat screw-ups) in her boss battle. Final Fantasy XIV has a few enemies that can damage your MP, which is an absolute killer for casters and healers and it can also mess up Dark Knights since, despite being a physical based tank class, they use MP for a lot of their skills. |

In Magic: The Gathering: Any ability that destroys and/or taps lands is effectively this trope; a particularly good example of this is Roiling Terrain, which destroys a land, then deals damage based on how many lands have been destroyed in total (while also punishing the use of fetch-lands, but that's a topic for another trope). Closer to the true meaning of this trope, there's Mana Short, among others. In Agents of Artifice, Paldor's manablade can sever mages' mana bonds, cutting them off from the source of their magic (and causing intense pain). There's also the now-obsolete rule of "Mana Burn", where if you have unused mana at the end of your turn (i.e. you tapped lands but didn't cast anything with them), you take damage to your life equal to the amount of mana unused, as it "burns" you. Since the rules allow you to tap land as you need it, the mana burn rule rarely, if ever, comes up. The rule was dropped in the 2010 Core Set release for being unnecessary 99% of the timenote Especially since any card that could potentially weaponize mana burn explicitly forbid it and annoying the remaining 1%. |

South Park: The Stick of Truth has Jimmy the Bard use the Brown Note attack, which actually fills up your mana meter every time you are struck, while blocking the attack won't boost the meter. Getting hit too much causes mana overload, which has the player character soil themselves and the mana meter completely empties. If you can get the timing down for blocking, you can allow yourself to be hit a few times and essentially get free mana from the attack while blocking the rest of it. | |

Kingdom of Loathing has several of these. Shub-Jigguwatt starts combat by draining your MP to zero and dealing damage equal to half the MP lost. Storm cows start combat by reducing your MP to 50 and dealing damage fully equal to the MP lost. Numerous other monsters have a special attack they can use repeatedly that drains some of your MP, proportionally healing the monster in the process. | |

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft: The Demon Hunter spell Mana Burn causes the opponent to have 2 less Mana on their next turn. The Sword of a Thousand Truths sets your opponent's mana crystals to zero when you attack them. Of course, acquiring the Sword is not easy, since you need to kill off seven copies of Elwynn Boar (and you can only run two copies of them in your deck). |

Kingdom Hearts In Kingdom Hearts and II, Sephiroth's Heartless Angel attack, in addition to bringing your HP to 1, also zeroes your MP, forcing you to recover using items or stop him from completing the attack in the first place. In the Updated Re-release of Chain of Memories, Marluxia's third form has Whirlwind to the Void, an attack that scatters Sora's cards across the battlefield, leaving him unable to do any attacks until he recovers them (and better hope he doesn't use Circle Reject immediately after, or else those cards are gone for good). In Birth By Sleep the Mysterious Figure also has this ability, and it is just as debilitating (possibly even more so because he'll continue attacking relentlessly while you're still trying to rebuild your command deck). |

City of Heroes has the Sappers of the Malta Group — a well-known annoyance, especially for Tanks and other archetypes whose strengths are based around powers that require a regular flow of Endurance and stop working once the meter's drained. Players also have access to Mana Burning abilities, particularly Electric Themed Powersets. A Kinetics/Electrical Blast Defender can render enemies helpless if she knows what she's doing. An Electric/Electric Blaster is even better at it. Other enemies, such as the Carnival of Shadows, have similar attacks that can drain your endurance, or stop you from regenerating it. At least players with Electric Armor can get the last laugh, having gained 90% resistance to endurance draining powers by the level that the above enemies start appearing at. |

In Heroes of Newerth, Magebane has a manaburn passive attack and Nullfire Blade gives gives this passive to any hero. Witch Slayer has an ability that drains mana from enemies for himself while channeling it. Moira has an ability that temporarily drains an opponent's entire mana supply, which is restored over time. However, spending mana before it fully recovers will restart the process. | |
