This despicable enchantment, EKKAΘAPIΣTE MIΓAΔEΣ KAI AKAΘAPTA (Ekkathariste migades kai akatharta) roughly translated as "Clean the impure and half-breeds," uses ancient Atlantean blood magic to strip away another's powers, leaving them weak and vulnerable. While it had no effect on those directly descended from the original Atlanteans of Old Atlantis, close proximity and prolonged exposure to the spell could lead to permanent power loss and in extreme cases death.
On September 7, 2010, Ocean Master successfully cast this spell, combining the power of Neptune's Trident and the life force of Queen Mera Nereus to do so. This allowed his cult of Atlantean Purists to ambush and attack those in Poseidonis they deemed "impure" and inferior.
However, before they could cause permanent damage, the young Atlantean Garth thwarted Orm, using the powers of the Tempest to momentarily disarm the prince. Separated from the trident, this break in concentration was enough to reverse the spell.
