Editing Rokna Blue

'''- Rokna Blue (SWG#9, sidebar, page 28)'''These blue-tinted pebbles, which are derived from a fungus native to [[Endor]], are used as a narcotic all throughout the Modell sector. The drug gives a brief (5D minutes) feeling of euphoria, which is followed b a loss of memory and a craving for more of the drug. When a character takes a dose must make a Moderate ''Willpower'' skill check. Failure means that he loses 1 pip from his Knowledge, Perception, or Technical scores (choose which attribute randomly), and the character is driven to find another dose. Each subsequent dose past the first requires a Very Difficult ''Willpower'' skill check, or further attribute points will be lost in the same manner. Up to 6 pips/2D can be lost from any single attribute. If untreated for more than a week, this damage is permanent. The condition can be reversed, but requires either long-term medical care (Moderate difficulty ''Medicine (A)'' skill roll per point recovered) or the use of the Accelerate Another's Healing Force power (which requires a Difficult ''Alter'' skill roll per point recovered).


'''Rokna blue''' was an extremely potent and deadly narcotic that was extracted from a tree fungus on the forest moon of Endor. The smallest amount—no more than a microgram—brought exquisite bliss which lasted for hours but was otherwise considered fatally poisonous. Another side effect of using "the blue" was memory loss; one Rokna addict, Joreb Goss, could not remember anything from more than a year earlier.
