Death stick/Legends

Death sticks were a mild hallucinogen drug primarily sold on Outer Rim worlds, but could be found in abundance on Coruscant. Originally developed in the illegal pharmaceutical labs of CoCo Town, they were relatively cheap and were smuggled into the clubs of cities by slythmongers.
==History==
Death sticks were a devastating factor in Balosar society. Pollution was one of the causes of the heavy addiction to death sticks, but the Balosars' immunity to toxins allowed them to consume them without much effect other than the life-long addiction. Some Balosars even entered the death stick business, where they would travel in hopes of finding potential customers.The New Essential Guide to Alien Species
During the reign of the Galactic Republic, illegal trade in death sticks became the greatest competition to the spice from Ryloth called ryll. The rivalry resulted in a hatred between the Balosars and Twi'leks.
In 34 BBY, Bando Gora leader Komari Vosa entered into a deal with Gardulla the Hutt, Senator Connus Trell of Ryloth, and the powerful Dug death-stick kingpin, Sebolto, to distribute contaminated death sticks, as a means of supplying the Bando Gora with 'brain dead' recruits.Darth Plagueis
Shortly after the Invasion of Naboo, the Bando Gora distributed a more potent and deadly form of death stick to gather more members until the cult was destroyed by Jango Fett.
In 22 BBY, Elan Sel'Sabagno tried to sell Obi-Wan Kenobi death sticks, but Kenobi used a Jedi Mind trick to convince him he did not want to sell them to Kenobi, then to convince him to stop selling death sticks altogether, which eventually resulted in Elan "going home to rethink his life".
At another point,reporter Anjet Okeco wrote an article for HoloNet News about the use of death sticks among Coruscant's youth with Coruscant Health Officials estimating millions of children using them. Soon after, two students at a sub-adult school in the Jrade District were found in possession of death sticks.
