The Jodau Fofipa (Mind Cleaner) is a drug developed by the Poku Saeruo Degonjo, and which wipes the recent memories of those it is given to. This drug falls under the Wapointe (Healing) umbrella of Clan technology.
In the clan year 747, (YE 29) the Poku Saeruo Degonjo successfully developed and began using Jodau Fofipa (Mind Cleaner) as an alternative method of dealing with prisoners. The Otâmovi Wiy Jael (Silver Moon Sect) developed Jodau Fofipa using toxins extracted from plants grown and manipulated by the Tula of the Poku Vit (Plant Clan).
Jodau Fofipa is typically administered to unconscious prisoners, but it can be given to conscious ones. The drug is injected into the veins of the patient. There are different formulas for different metabolisms, and it can be difficult to create a formula of Jodau Fofipa that can affect an unfamiliar alien species.
Upon being injected into a patient, and if the toxin has been correctly mixed and modified for the subject's metabolism, the first effect of the Jodau Fofipa is to cause a chemically-induced coma-like state. Patients who were conscious are rendered unconscious at this time. Next, depending on the size of the dosage given, the Jodau Fofipa cleanses between 15 minutes and 2 hours of memories. No memories older than 2 hours have ever been recorded as being removed by applications of Jodau Fofipa. The patient remains in an unconscious state for between 2 and 4 hours, depending on their metabolism. Skilled Healers and awaken the subject as soon as 2 hours by using an administration of drugs.
Additional doses of Jodau Fofipa merely extend the state of unconsciousness of a subject. An overdose of this toxin can lead to symptoms similar to Toxic_shock_syndrome, and even death. Only a very amateur and inexperienced Wapoin'aka (Doctor) would give a patient an overdose of this toxin sufficient to kill a patient. This drug does not make an effective tool for execution, as it requires a great deal of the base plant materials to produce enough to wipe memories, and far more to actually cause death.
By YE 46, the Poku Saeruo Degonjo has developed formulas of Jodau Fofipa that can wipe the memories of the following species:1)
