Drugs
In the vast and complex tapestry of the Star Army universe, drugs exist as a double-edged sword - offering both miraculous healing and dangerous escapism. From advanced pharmaceuticals that can heal wounds and enhance abilities to illicit substances that can ensnare the mind and body, drugs in this setting are as diverse as the galaxy itself.
History
The development and use of drugs have evolved alongside the civilizations of the Star Army universe. Initially focused on healing and enhancement, the science of pharmacology made leaps in treating diseases, healing injuries, and enhancing soldiers' capabilities. However, as interstellar travel expanded, so did the trade and misuse of drugs, leading to a proliferation of both life-saving remedies and life-destroying substances.
In YE 45, a large number of new drugs came on the market due to the advent of Advancer Pharmaceuticals.
