Mindmelt - See the plant in Flora.
Third Eye Flower - See the plant in Flora.
Doom Shroom - Mushroom used by mystics in conjunction with third-eye flower, so named because the visions it's said to induce are always worse-case scenarios in such vivid detail as to cause temporary (or in some cases, long-term) mental breakdowns in the user.
Opium
Cannabis
Smokeweed - Naruta name for tobacco.
Certain Fungus - A variety of fungi can cause psychedelic effects of varying intensity. On the weak end of the scale, there is Flasheye Fungus. Eating this mushroom will cause you to randomly see flashes of colors as well as strangely highlighting colors of objects around you to unusual intensity. It only lasts an hour or two. On the strong end, there is Otherworld Mushroom. This causes full blown hallucinations with intense realistic sounds and sensations. This lasts up to five hours though someone in the midsts of a hallucination by it may accidentally ingest more, prolonging this effect.
Zippity Leaves - These leaves are chewed though not swallowed. They have a gum-like consistency once they've been chewed. Chewing these leaves fills an individual with a feeling of great energy and excitement, making this drug a powerful stimulant. People speak and move faster while under the effects of the leaves though the feeling is purely artificial. Once the effect has worn off after about ten minutes per leaf chewed the individual undergoes a crash from the strain on their system as well as whatever hyperactive activities they put themselves through.
Smiley Smoke - Instills euphoria in the smoker. The smoker perceives things to be more amusing or funny than normal and there's a constant urge to giggle and laugh bubbling under the surface of things. Some smokers liken it to being 'almost-tickled' but not quite.
Bravery Brandy - The name of this drug is misleading. It is actually a powder from a specific flower that is normally used as a calming agent in teas. The powder itself is inert but when put in milk (or any liquid with milk in it) and warmed it creates a bizarrely potent drug upon drinking. The drinker will experience feelings of absolute invulnerability and power. This effect lasts several hours and may lead to severe injury if the drinker allows themselves to commit dangerous acts. This drug was discovered on accident after a healer created a tea with it for a commander in a battle and then added hot milk as per his requests. When the commander later discovered what had caused his rash decisions and actions, he ordered it given to all of his men on the eve of another battle. Unfortunately, most of them perished in the ensuing bloodbath.
Gloss - This drug concoction as a finished product by the hand of an Addict is a somewhat slimy liquid that's meant to be swished around the mouth and then spat out (not ingested; that causes overdosing.) The effects happen fairly rapidly. First the user's mouth grows tingly and then numb. In a matter of minutes, they begin to feel numbness in their digits--fingers and toes--that will spread to their hands and feet. Further doses will cause this sensation to spread up the arms and legs. The drug was given its name for the gossy-eyed look that users tend to get. The numbness is very powerful. Users unfamiliar with the drug may accidentally cause severe damage to numb body parts as almost all sensation is deadened where the drug is affecting the body.
Some individuals take Gloss because it also has a mild downer effect, calming upset nerves, though it can also lead to sadness or depression if the user is sensitive to emotional swings. Addicts favor taking gloss when trying to bring themselves down off a manic-inducing drug or if their trip induces unpleasant phantom sensations, as Gloss can also sometimes counteract this with its numbing feeling.
Overdosing side effects include paralyzation (partial or full, temporary or permanent), coma, and/or death. Overdosing is swallowing a dose of the liquid or taking 3 or more 'swishes' of it.
Aphrodisiacs
Golden Haze - This yellow drug induces a kind of sluggish, dazed feeling at first followed by intense arousal and loss of inhibition.
Wrath's Kiss - This aphrodisiac comes in a liquid form and its effects scale exponentially with the amount ingested. It causes the imbiber to become aroused but also more aggressive than normal, sometimes causing feelings of irritation and annoyance to rise easier.
Necessity - An aphrodisiac whose effects on arousal are minor, this drug is ingested to increase stamina, making it useful outside of the bedroom as well.
Flush - This drug can be imbibed or rubbed on the skin, though most people prefer to ingest it unless they wish to only sensitize a specific area. Makes all skin extra sensitive to touch.
Frustration - This drug is not so much an aphrodisiac as it is simply used in tandem with sexual activities. Ingested. Has no effect aside from inhibiting orgasm.
Soahc's Flower - Not actually an aphrodisiac but similar. Slang names include Love-Me-Today and Lover's Rose. When this flower is inhaled (either while it is live or from a dried and crushed powder) it makes the individual who inhaled it fall instantly in love with the next person he lays eyes on. Continual use of the flower prolongs this effect rather than switches the target. One inhalation lasts for roughly twenty-four hours.
Third Eye Flower - See the plant in Flora.
Doom Shroom - Mushroom used by mystics in conjunction with third-eye flower, so named because the visions it's said to induce are always worse-case scenarios in such vivid detail as to cause temporary (or in some cases, long-term) mental breakdowns in the user.
