I need some information for an upcoming story. First of all, does anyone know if there are syringes in Star Wars? If not, how are drugs administered? Secondly, I need any and all information about spice and other narcotics used in Star Wars. Either post a URL with the information on it, or mail it to me at [email protected] - thanks in advance.

The best I can tell you is that there are many types of spice. The major types though are Kessel Spice (which is mined by penal colonies on the giant asteroid of Kessel) and Ryll Spice which comes from Ryloth. Spice, I believe, can be taken in a variety of ways (including snorting, via needles, etc.) IP: 24.237.58.18 |

i think there are syringes but they don't have needles, they just inject the drug through your skin. and glitterstim, the spice mined on kessel is activated by light but if exposed to light for too long it will become impotant. when high with glitterstim you can read minds for a short period of time. ------------------ IP: 152.163.206.17 |

Ah yes they did have syringes. Remember when Vader came into Leia's detention cell with the interrogation droid.(ANH) It had a bunch of syringes attatched to it. IP: 152.163.201.5 |

If I remember corectly the less refined form of spice called Glitterstim is more addicting but also gives the user temporary telepathy. I know one of the forms of spice does this but other than that I can't help out much. ------------------ "If we have all knowladge then we would not wish to seek what we know, but if we had no knowledge how could we even ask a question?"

From Jedi Eclipse, a Hutt refers to the different types of spice available: "glitterstim and the kor grade of the mineral ryll....(a)nd there you see carsunum. lumni-spice, gree spice, and andris." Apparently there are more kinds than we have been led to believe. Perhaps this will expand your search. IP: 139.78.190.2 |

Compiled from the Unofficial Encyclopedia http://www.theforce.net/swenc/index.htm Have been unable to find specific info on medical practices. I do have this tho: Medjector Types of Spice Andris Carsunum Glitterstim Gree Spice Kor Lumni-spice Narco-spice Ryll Related topics: Spice Spice Eel Spice grub Spice Liquor Spice Lords of Sevarcos Spice Mine Run Spice Narcosis Spice Shippers' Fellowship Spice Spider Spice Terminus Spice Worm Spice-jacker I have left the references intact in case you wish to explore the source material better. A list of the abbreviations is located at the site noted above. [This message has been edited by Fury (edited October 10, 2000).] IP: 139.78.190.2 |
