## **Glister**

**Street Name:** Twinkle, fairy dust, flash

**Type(s):** Stimulant

**Origin:** Glister is derived the glista plant, a crop grown almost exclusively in Ceth territory. It’s believed that Ceth typically burn the glista and inhale the smoke, though with little to no effect. Whenever it was introduced to another race, it’s properties were radically different. Dozens of stories of the creation of ‘glister’ have been forged over decades, but it isn’t known who conceived of the process that refines glista extract into it’s powder form.

**"Positive" Effects:** Users feel exhilarated and euphoric. Furthermore, users often experience a temporary but extraordinary increase in alertness and energy levels. The five basic senses are sharpened 3x fold. The sensory effects are heightened 5x fold if the user is a Yui. Glister is only as potent to a Ceth as one third of it’s normal potency.

**Negative Effects:** Short-term effects include faster breathing and increases in body temperature and heart rate. Users' behaviour can also become bizarre, erratic and violent. Excessive doses of glister may lead to convulsions, seizures, stroke, cerebral haemorrhage or heart failure. Users will experience postponement of hunger and fatigue regardless of how it is tken. Sniffing glister can severely damage nasal tissue, smoking can cause respiratory problems, whilst injection can lead to abscesses and infectious diseases. Other risks, regardless of ingestion method, include dependency, malnutrition, weight loss, disorientation, apathy,  and paranoia. Long time users of glister will develop a dependency and their skin will become a shade of blue. The coloration will affect Eolo, Sirin, and Frea differently. An Eolo’s scales begin to lose color, a Frea will lose their hair and develop a deep purple coloration, and a Sirin’s feathers fall out and their skin develops a shade of bright yellow. Remarkably… Ceth will only experience the desired positive effects of glister. Lastly… if glister is taken with alcohol, a volatile chemical reaction sparks a dazzling gold, silver, and copper flame roasting the user from the inside-out.

**Manner of Fabrication:** Pods from glista plants are harvested and ground into a mushy pulp. The liquid or ‘extract’ is extracted from the pulp and mixed with salt. The mixture is baked for up to several hours and allowed to dry for up to twelve days. The dried mixture is ground into a fine powder that resembles silver dust with hints of gold and copper.

**Method of Administration:** Glister can smoked, mixed with water and injected into the bloodstream, or condensed into tablets and taken orally or as suppository.

**Price:** 600 to 800 gold pieces for every gram sold outside of the Ceth territory. Glista is grown almost exclusively in the Ceth territory and so it relatively cheap inside Ceth territory at roughly 30 to 45 gold pieces.

**Legality:** Ownership, production, and distribution of glister is illegal in all territories except for the Ceth.

## **Cetani**

**Street Name:** Honey

**Type(s):** Aphrodisiac

**Origin:** It is said that this substance is produced straight from a Hex Queen. The exact house is unknown, but it is coveted for it's brilliant golden color and sweet taste.

**"Positive" Effects:** Great "warmth", enhanced sexuality, an quick way to relax, especially if one is anxious around others. It also has a sealing and cleansing effect on injuries.

**Negative Effects:** When taken in large doses, it becomes hard to decline the influence of others. Some may use this as a truth serum against a foe, but the results would vary greatly. This substance is easily addictive and if too much is taken in excess often, the subject would develop antenna and begin to hear the Queen's "song." This however drives most mad and the others who manage to keep their sanity are drawn into the Ceth lands. What happens beyond then is unknown.

**Manner of Fabrication:** It is made by a Ceth Queen and her daughters.

**Method of Administration:** Oral, can be rubbed into a wound or have a SMALL AMOUNT put into the blood stream for faster results.

**Price:** Low, for a drug, 100 - 200 gold for a small pickle sized jar.

**Legality:** Most nations allow it for medical reasons. If one is caught using it for recreational use, they will be given a small fine and their Cetani will be confiscated.

## **Kilnsi-Korinth**

**Street Name(s)**: Double K, Rage, Crash

**Type:** Steroid

**Origin:** Kilnsi-Korinth is a type of herbaceous
perennial that grows only within the Eolo territory. White
Eolo Shaman discovered that the roots possess a special property, an enzyme that
turns all who taste of it into blood-thirsty beasts. Though lethal to the user,
it proved to be a formidable trump card, bestowing greater strength to the
already monstrous Kilnsi.

**"Positive" Effects:** Kilnsi-Korinth forces a release of
catecholamines, adrenaline, and noradrenaline in overabundance, triggering an
explosive burst of energy. It taps into the ‘fight or flight’ response in the
brain and erases the flight aspect, so to speak. A person will become unstable,
consumed with anger. Heart rate, blood pressure, and rate of breathing
increase, and the brain taps into a rare state of mind and body, hysterical
strength. There are occasions in which a person can perform incredible physical
feats, and it is thanks to the combination of both adrenaline and dopamine. The
brain produces obscene amounts of dopamine in order to kill any and all pains,
allowing the person access to their full physical power... but it is a rare
occurrence. With Kilnsi-Korinth, you can access this hysterical strength with
ease.

**Negative Effects:** Long-term use creates an imbalance in the brain,
triggering violent mood-swings, depression, and insomnia. With every use, the
user becomes more likely to experience heart attack and stroke.

**Manner of Fabrication:** Kilnsi-Korinth
can be consumed in its natural state if found fresh. Outside the the Eolo
terrtitory, Kilnsi-Korinth is chopped into small cubes which are then dried
under the sun. Lastly, the cubes are dipped into a red sugar-syrup to provide a
sweet and crunchy candy coating to disguise the sourness of the Kilnsi-Korinth.

**Method of Administration:** Kilnsi-Korinth
must be digested for its effects to activate

**Price:** 200 – 300 per ounce

**Legality:** Inside the Eolo Territory, Kilnsi-Korinth is allowed only
to be harvested by blue Eolo, inspected by white Eolo Shaman, and used by the
Kilnsi. Within the other territories, it is illegal to possess, distribute, and
use Kilnsi-Korinth.

## **Reverse**

**Street Name(s):** Reverse, Joy.

**Type:** Psychoactive drug.

**Origin:** accidentally discovered by old alchemist who were studying Um'er. Since then practiced in medication against Profane transformations. Alchemists related the loss of the flowers on top of the heads of Um'er to their purity, and discovered that the petals contain highly concentrated doses of this drug. The exploitation massively led to many deaths of Um'er, but since religious Yui interfered, there came a law on getting this drug that stopped the Um'er deaths.

**Positive/Negative effects:** The user has switched feelings of sadness and happiness, and the other opposite feelings in a smaller degree. The drug creates an addiction,but not a physical one, just mental, since the user wishes to experience the happiness again, according on how depressed he or she is.

**Manner of Fabrication:** Extracted by drying and then crunching the Um'er petals into powder. The powder is of high concentration and even less than a small teaspoon is enough to cause the effect. More effective to use with water and drinks, since it has a strong sweet taste. The Um'er can survive easily and live on as if nothing happened without one petal, so the law was established to how much can be made from one Um'er until it regenerates its petals back.

**Method of Administration:** swallowing the powder dissolved in water or other drinks.

**Price:** 700 gold per 50 grams in apothecaries, 500 on black market.

most tribes where the more mature tribesmen and women can partake of unsuaco
together.

**"Positive"**
**Effects**:Unsuaco clears
the tensions of the body and mind; a potent muscle relaxant and a mild
psychoactive. Stress is cleansed from the mind and replaced with a gentler
state of euphoria. The world might appear brighter to some, but other than that
the senses are not fuddled with very much.

**Negative**
**Effects:** For races
other than the Eolo, unsuaco is highly addictive and has a chance of weakening
the immune system. Long-time use of unsuaco damages the airways and increases the
risks of heart attack and stroke.

one-quarter pound of high quality unsuaco.

400 – 500 gold pieces for

**Type:** Unique psychoactive

**Origin:** Named after its creator: Allicere Corporis, an accomplished
sorceress and alchemist. She created this special substance in order to win the
heart of a colleague. A fellow mage caught wind of Allicere’s project and
reverse-engineered the substance in order to make a profit. Allicere can be
found circulating through black markets.

**Positive" Effects:** When used, Allicere will stain the body with
a special fragrance that affects all who take a whiff by activating a special
charm spell. The spell changes the person’s view of whomever is using Allicere
at the time. The user will appear more attractive and desirable by anyone and
everyone with the small exception of the Eolo whom are resistant to magic.
Applying more than what is recommended might affect an Eolo however…

in those who take in its scent. The user will be desired to the point where one

## **Papavera**

**Street Name(s):** Snooze, dreamer, maidenbane

**Type:** Opiate

**"Positive" Effects:** Frequently used as a sleep aid and pain reliever. 10 grams will help an adult Hume to sleep for up to six hours. The effects are doubled on Yui , for reasons unknown. Frea seemed to be affected at about the same rate as the Hume, and it's effects on Eolo and Ceth are not well documented, although it is likely the Eolo use it or a similar plant for the relief of pain, due to their resistance to magic. Sirin may be more susceptible, due to their low body weight.

**Negative Effects:** The substance is easily addictive above a certain quantity, and can lead to the user losing interest in daily living, eventually wasting away.

**Manner of Fabrication:** The papavera flower is an innocent looking wildflower, generally of a soft grey blue color, children pick it for garlands , due to its pliant stem. Smelling or handling the plants has no effects on the user. The seed pods is removed and dried. When placed in a bowl and lit, the resulting smoke can be inhaled and cause a dreamlike euphoria.The fresh pods can also be cut, and the seeping liquid dried and powdered. It is used as a sleep aid and painkiller, in carefully measured doses. It can also be blended with other ingredients to create a syrup or liquid to coat tranquilizing darts

However, due to it's addictive qualities, it's sale is restricted to one pouch per week, and that only with the required note. Available on the black market for 100 gold per 50 grams, in forms of varying strength and safety

**Legality:** Legal in Hume territories with a note, illegal without. However, due to the relative ease of it's manufacture, not well enforced. Strictly illegal in Yui territory due to the heightened effects. Less common in other territories, but the plants have cropped up in unusual places.
