Narcotics are addictive substances used for their pleasureable side-effects, as opposed to combat drugs that are used to strengthen the body and mind for battle. Narcotics can be either smoked or injected directly into the bloodstream. Some narcotics share both methods. Smokeable forms are kept in tubes, and are ingested using an igniter. Injected versions are held in injector vials.

  • Midas Betancore - Friend and partner of Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn, though he is known to have "cleaned up".
  • Murdin Eyclone - The late nemesis of Inquisitor Eisenhorn was a heavy user.
  • Girolamo Malahite - Associate of the corrupt House Glaw.
