Our rampaging robot just blasted a victim with a ray beam created with Particular 1.5 in AE CS4. How do I create the effect of said victim being engulfed in energy during the blast?
How do I engulf "robot victim" in energy?

Heres a quick rundown, you can get more advanced but this is a good start.
Mask out your victim for the duration of the effect.
Make a layer of say Red, or orange or whatever and copy the mask to that layer
Shrink the mask down to a small point, and feather.
Expand the mask at the speed you find right, and play with the feather.
Add glow
