Death stick

A death stick was a highly addictive illicit substance readily found in the underworld of Coruscant and other locales across the galaxy. Delivered inside luminescent sticks, they were a favorite among desperate addicts and thrill-seekers. Death sticks were created from distilled and refined ixetal cilona, made from the balo mushrooms found on the planet Balosar.Cyphers and Masks

Kenobi, however, used a Jedi mind trick both to convince him that he did not want to sell him death sticks and that he wanted to go home and rethink his life. The human Enric Pryde used death sticks until he joined the Galactic Empire, for which he gave up his use of the drug in order to fit his idea of what an Imperial officer should be.Shadow of the Sith
