Each creature in a 15-foot cube must make a DC 14 Constitution save. On a failure, the creature takes 3d6 thunder damage, is deafened for 1 minute, and is pushed 10 feet away from Ulfric. On a success, the creature takes half as much damage, isn't deafened, and isn't pushed.

Ulfric Stormcloak of the Stormcloak Clan is the rebellious Jarl of Windhelm who started the uprising against Imperial rule known as the Stormcloak Rebellion. An incredibly divisive and controversial figure, Ulfric is leading the fight against the Empire in a bid for religious freedom and political independence for Skyrim. For historical information on Ulfric, see the lore article. According to the Imperials, Ulfric assassinated the High King of Skyrim with the Thu'um in an effort to ignite an uprising against the Empire's rule over Skyrim. According to the Stormcloaks, however, he challenged him to one-on-one combat in the old Nord way, only using the Thu'um to put him on the ground, then killing him with his sword. Ulfric gained the ability to use The Voice by training with the Greybeards. Many non-Nord citizens, and also some Nords, consider him to be prejudiced against non-humans. In his city, Windhelm, the Dunmer live in an area called the Gray Quarter, the segregated slums of Windhelm. Likewise, Argonians have been banished to the outskirts of Windhelm. Ulfric refuses to send aid to the Khajiit caravans and non-Nord towns that have been raided by bandits, even though he is "the first to sound the horn" when Nord villages are being threatened. Conversely, many Nords consider Ulfric Stormcloak to be a revolutionary commander who is mounting a legitimate uprising against Cyrodiil's imperialism and the Imperial Legion in Skyrim. Indeed, a common sentiment expressed by many of Ulfric's followers is that the Emperor forfeited the legitimacy of his rule by surrendering to the Aldmeri Dominion and agreeing to outlaw the worship of Talos, and that the Empire of today is essentially a puppet state of the Thalmor which no longer deserves to be formally recognized by any of its provinces.
