Drugs
Berserker: An illegal combat drug, Berserker is PCP on steroids. It provides a fierce high, removes the person's ability to feel pain or incapacitation, removing limiters on their strength and speed, and also drives them into a fierce, unrelenting rage.
- Potency: +5
- Onset: 1 round
- Interval: 1 scene
- Addiction: +2
- Effect: +2 to all physical attributes, no wound penalties (doesn't even notice Incapacitation). A Willpower roll (+2 difficulty) is required to not fly into a berserker rage in any stressful situation. Berserking means you are incapable of doing anything which requires significant thought, like trigger discipline or power usage.
Reaper: A drug designed to block fear and pain while keeping the person in question fully mentally capable, Reaper deadens emotions, blocks pain, and has few side effects save for the complete dispassionate mindset which can make it easier for a user to commit atrocities or kill.

- Onset: 1 minute
- Interval: 1 scene
- Addiction: +0
- Effect: +3 Willpower, Iron Will, no wound penalties, 2 bonus successes on any roll to resist emotional manipulation, no Virtue or Vice (no way to gain or lose WP for the duration).

- Potency: +3
