Compresses an envelope of space around the caster and an adjacent enemy, then allows it to decompress abruptly, propelling both of them forward until the latter collides with something, inflicting damage proportional to the distance travelled. Originally designed for use in construction, it will automatically target the nearest mass with the longest clear path towards a wall or other solid object (such as another monster).

Maxwell's Portable Piledriver is a level 3 Translocations spell that grabs an enemy in melee range, and propels both it and the caster in that direction until hitting another monster or a wall (or reaching max range). It does damage via collision only, but that damage is increased based on how far you've travelled.

History
