//Whether you sniff it, smoke it, eat it or shove it up your ass, the risks are the same; overdose and addiction//

Drugs have existed for countless generations, from chemical to biological and now technological. Like in any prison, drugs are quite hard to come by. Of course the [[people_of_the_prison|Doctor]] will have medicine for healing a wound, stitching up a limb, and medication for the pain, but there are other ways of getting drugs for example as a [[qualities#other_qualities|Luxury Item]], [[qualities#relations|knowing others]] who have the drugs, or becoming friends with the guards, and in particular one correctional officer, [[people_of_the_prison#staff|Riley Cole]]. Availability varies between drugs.

===== How Drugs Work with Turnsheeting =====
Drugs that your character has obtained may be taken as part of a major or minor action. If you're just attempting to avoid withdrawal effects, a minor action to take it is sufficient for the turn. If you're using the drug's benefit as part of your plan for a major action, you should specify when you take it, taking into account the duration.

Acquiring the [[qualities|Addiction]] (-2) quality is not guaranteed. Chances of becoming addicted vary by drug, but increase with the number of times the drug is taken. More Drugs = Higher Chance of Addiction.
