More drugs of the Old World This stuff was written by Stefan Fuhs, Reikswald Moss ('Steppenkraut') ------------------------------- This herbal drug is usually a dried part of the Reikswald Moss. The effect is a relaxing daze in which the user feels comfortably lost. Quite like weed, actually - here's the Warhammer version of it. Treat Reikswald Moss like the normal tranquillisers described in the Middenheim sourcebook, p.90. Type: Tranquilliser Price/dose: 3 to 4 /- Dependency: 5 Addictiveness: - Overdose: - Duration: 1d3+1 No. of doses to side effects: 1d100+20 side effects: absent minded, melancholia Availibility: common dosage: smoked in a pipe effects: as described Winterdreams ------------ Winterdreams is a synthetic drug from the alchemistic underground labs of the Estalian City States. It is a strong hallucinogen that implies the feeling of being in a winter landscape. The intensity of the illusions depends upon the number of doses taken, but usually the world seems to be silent and peaceful - enwrapped by snow and ice. Note that there is a chance of a bad trip, since Winterdreams is a normal hallucinogen. How this mind-boggling, horrifing trip exactly looks like is up to the GM. Type: hallucinogen Price/dose: 8 GC Dependency: 20 Addictiveness: 3 Overdose: 10 Duration d3+1 No. of doses to side effects: 3d12+3 side effects: gain 1 insanity point every 2 days Availibility: Rare dosage: White pill - to be put on tongue Rage of the beast ('Bloodletter') --------------------------------- This stimulant is a nightmarish, brain-toasting combination of toxic mushrooms, gunpowder, blood and obscure alchemistic ingredients. Rage supresses all intellectual activity of the brain and focuses only on combat, a reason why it is mainly used by burned-out warriors and pit fighters. Treat Rage like the normal stimulant described on p.90, but add an additional A+1, and change the movement penalty to M-4, due to the incredible sour muscles afterwards. Type: Stimulant Price/dose: 1 GC Dependency: 20 Addictiveness: 40 Overdose: 5 Duration: 2d6 No. of doses to side effects: 15+1d6 side effects: Frenzy, weight loss, animosity, Int-5 Availibility: Scare dosage: just eat the ugly black paste Written by Stefan Fuhs, who - unfortunately - hasn't got an internet access.
