Unlabelled Drug
Unlabelled Drug | |
The label has been completely destroyed, and most of the tablets are mouldy. Nonetheless you manage to find some that are still edible... ish. Are you sure you're sick enough to justify swallowing them though ? | |

Terrorised (?% Chance) |

Hooked! (?% Chance) |
Using an Unlabelled Drug is like pouring the contents of your medicine cabinet into a bowl, mixing it, and hoping you pick something other than the laxative. Is it worth the risk of addiction for that extra refill?
On the other hand, players who are already Hooked! can try to use the Unlabelled Drug as their daily junkie dose, making it a useful addition to any town's bank... or at least the bank of a town with someone who pops pills like candy.
And if someone is Infected... well, they're not going to live much longer, so why not use them as lab rats?

Uses
Upon ingestion, the Unlabelled Drug has a random effect. It could include:
- No effect (you don't even lose Clean status)
- Restore 6 and gain Drugged status
- Restore 7 (max +1), gain Drugged status and Hooked!
- Cause Terrorised and Drugged
Notes
- Holding a Little Book of Calm in your rucksack when popping these pills prevents Terrorised status. (While the game will say you gained Terrorised if you get that result, you will not actually be afflicted.)
- Consuming an unlabelled drug gives the Drug Tests distinction.
Texts
If you get no effect:
You gulp down the Unlabelled Drug. After several minutes, your head starts to throb and your nose starts bleeding. The pain is not unbearable, but it's pretty far from pleasant...
If you restore 6 and Drugged:
The effects of the drug don't take long to show: nausea, trembling, cold sweats... But at least it gives you a boost. Don't abuse it !
If you restore 7 , Drugged and Hooked!:
You immediately regret swallowing the Unlabelled Drug... The product turns out to be a powerful steroid for animals (the kind usually given to horses as it happens). Your APs have been restored, but you instantly become dependant on drugs !
If you get Terrorised and Drugged:
You swallow the Unlabelled Drug... Just a few seconds later, you panic... Cold sweats, paranoia... You curl up in a ball, out of breath, waiting for the feelings to subside... but it doesn't happen.
You become Terrorised.
