Mass Awaken (or Awaken All) has the same effect as the Awaken spell, save that it affects more individuals.

Description[edit]

This spell awakens all members of the mage’s party, providing a broad solution when multiple allies are afflicted by hostile sleep spells. While Mass Awaken offers an area-of-effect solution, the single-target Awaken spell, being a zero-mana spell, can be a more resource-efficient option for individual cases.

Lore[edit]

An illustration showing several medieval-era figures around a man lying unconscious on the ground. One figure kneels beside the unconscious man, appearing to administer aid, while another stands over them, looking concerned. Two other figures are in the background; one is seated, holding his head, and another stands observing.
Awakens all nearby sleepers with an explosion.


This spell awakens all unconscious members of the mage’s party.


This spell acts just like the Second Circle spell Awaken, except that it affects all nearby allies of the caster.


Trivia[edit]

  • The spell was omitted from the C64-port of Ultima VI.
  • In terms of gameplay, in Ultima VII casting Awaken several times while pausing the game achieves the same purpose, and as Awaken is a linear spell, this option would be free.
  • In Ultima VI, Mass Dispel has the capability to remove various magical effects, including sleep, making it a broader utility spell than Mass Awaken. However, achieving this effect with Mass Dispel typically incurs a higher resource cost.
