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.

Obscura

Obscura is a common, and highly addictive drug. It is found amongst the middle- and upper-class citizens of the Imperium, as well as the followers of Slaanesh. It has both smoking and injecting versions.

Note-worthy obscura users are:

Iho-Leaf

Iho-leaf is a drug considered less serious than obscura, but still considered a narcotic. It comes in narc-tubes, and is smoked. It is used, at least by Midas Betancore, as a substitute for obscura.
