Tornado is the Feral Link of Pleuston and Clione. It deals magic damage to the target and surrounding foes and launches them into the air.

Final Fantasy XIV[]

Twister is used during phase 4 of the battle against Twintania, the superboss at the end of Turn 5 of the Binding Coil of Bahamut. The spell places small green tornados at the feet of several randomly-chosen players, which instantly kill any player who touches them. This mechanic requires all players to move as soon as Twintania begins casting the spell, since the twisters are placed where the player was standing at the beginning of the cast.
