Intermittent screeching

Description
Intermittent screeching is a level 20 area attack that can be used exclusively by Tom. Legend has it that it is loud and irritating.

Source
Can be used by Tom at any given moment, but is often released by others when involuntarily stepping on Lego, or when viewing Cursed_images.

Behavior
Intermittent screeching is highly effective against large crowds of weak enemies, sometimes know as zergs. It has a default range of 8 meters, but its attack power is strongest at close range. Within a 3 meter radius, it will deal 12 damage per second, and for every extra meter away loses 2 DPS. This range and power can be increased with the use of Joseph's Microphone, or the consumption of Cheese sauce, increasing the base DPS by 4 and 6 respectively (thus increasing the maximum range by 2 and 3, respectively) Effects of consumables do stack.
