Drugs

== Background ==
These are popular drugs unique to the DC Universe.
=== Blockbuster ===
The first in a series of size-altering drugs, Blockbuster was created by Doctor Mark Desmond of Cadmus Labs. With the help of his brother, Roland, it found its way to the streets. It mutates users to have much larger muscles, while also having a jaundiced effect on the skin. It reduces verbal capacity and mental ability as well.
=== Venom ===
Venom started as a prison drug for the luchadores in the Peña Duro prison, which essentially numbed their bodies to any type of physical pain, allowing them to fight longer and punch harder. It was eventually combined with Blockbuster after they received a shipment of it. They further enhanced it so that the jaundice effect didn’t occur and users retained verbal and mental capacity.
=== Titan Formula ===
Titan is essentially an upgraded version of the prior two, except the physical mutation is far greater. Users would sometimes gain multiple feet in height, while also making them extraordinarily aggressive.
=== Smilex ===
This is the Joker’s special chemical cocktail. In an airborne form, it is fatal, forcing victims to laugh until their hearts or lungs essentially give out. However, the Laugh Pack has begun dealing it, as some people find it gives the same effect as laughing gas, making them looser in smaller quantities.
=== Fear Toxin ===
Jonathan Crane’s invention, it makes its user hallucinate their worst fear. While originally used for nefarious purposes, Team Penguin began dealing it after they discovered people enjoyed it as a recreational hallucinogenic.
=== Velocity-9 ===
The drug was invented by Eddie Thawne, Darwin Elias, and Vandal Savage. It allows its consumers to run at super-speed for an extended period of time and get a euphoric high. However, the after effects include premature aging, exhaustion, bloodshot eyes, and exhaustion. 
=== Red Kryptonite ===
Derived from samples from Brainiac’s ship, the rocks have since made their way around the black market and been synthesized and copied. Users enjoy crushing up the rocks and snorting them. For humans, it simply gives them a euphoric high and feeling of invincibility, to the point that some have become daredevils and injured themselves. For Kryptonians, it mutes their powers to a small degree and makes them more susceptible to ailments that otherwise wouldn’t affect them.
=== Miraclo ===
Invented by the Japanese during World War Two under the name mirakuru, Rex Tyler stole the recipe and made it for himself to use as Hourman. It gives the user powers of super strength, x-ray vision, and near invincibility for exactly one hour. It was also a key element in the Venom formula.
=== Gingold ===
Distilled from a rare fruit, Gingold is a liquid that lets users become looser and elastic, able to bend in ways that they couldn’t before. It is popularly used by Elongated Man and Woman. It is not recreational and incredibly rare, so it scarcely finds its way into the public.
