E'tam

E'tam is a drug and herb of Xi'an origin, commonly known to Humans by its street names Flow, Blinder or Ticktock, with an appearance similar to dried green tea leaves; green and granular.

It is used by the Xi'an to slow body function and focus in order to achieve a deeper meditative state. For Humans, the effects are much more severe.

Uses and effects
Side effects include hyper awareness, cognitive enhancement and hyper focus, which has made it popular among students and workers.

Cases involving E'tam in Corel have increased recently. Most involve people so engrossed in a task that they neglect to eat, sleep or take care of other basic bodily functions, thus prompting a call to authorities from a friend or relative in an effort to get that person help.

Legality
Possession is legal in most of the UEE, however not within the Jurisdiction of Crusader Industries, where there is a 2,000 UEC fine. Trafficking it anywhere in the UEE carries a 10,000 UEC fine. Unsurprisingly, E'tam is completely unregulated in Levski.
