What kind of Drug ((Ie; Spice) Is a Death Stick?

Is it an Opiate? A Hallucinagenic? A Party drug? Spice? Or is it something pointless like a cigarette?



--edit: Edited and unlocked.

 

I would assume it's a bad drug.

 

But they're so shiny, how can they be bad for you?

 

I don't really have an idea or opinion what it would do; but it seems likely that you would ingest it like a cigarette...maybe it even has the same side-effects as a cig...who knows...

And a cigarette is pointless? ?

Out of curiousity, anybody know the actor who played that part? He looked and sounded rather familiar.

 

He is Matt Doran, he played Mouse in the Matrix.

Edit: Found this out, aswell as being in the Matrix he was also in:

Thin Red Line, The (1998) .... Private Coombs

Lilian's Story (1995) .... Johnny

Home and Away (1988) [TV Series] .... Damian Roberts

 

This is one of those things that is left up for us to decide.

And somebody said the PT's have no "mystery" .

 

Also the woman in the red dress is in the nightclub somewhere, I dunno if she's in a red dress though she might be the girl in the thong. I would think death sticks make you hallucinate.

 

What other Spices do we know about? I've never been fond of the Gliterstim story In EU. But Jabba has a Hookah, Watto smokes something. Yoda Has his Gimmer stick, And Han Solo SMUGGLES Spice (and I'm sure Jabba isn't shipping it for humanitarian reasons).

Obi-wan's Just Say No message is the first anti spice thing we've heard out of the Star Wars camp.

Of course Those who use spice aren't exactly portrayed as role models....















Except for Yoda.

 

According to the AOTC visual dictionary, deathsticks contain a drug that shortens your life.
Must be a helluva drug if it actually sells!

 

Yeah, like Nicotine or Caffine... Helluva Drug...

 

According to this HNN article, Death Sticks provide a eurphoric reaction in exchange for shortened life... so I suppose the closest real-world drug (keeping the nightclub-parallel) would be ectasy I guess.



SPECIAL REPORT: The Death Stick Scourge

 

That Lucas is such a liberal pot head. He's on drugs just so he can get all these crazy ideas & call them Star Wars, characters in his movies sell & run drugs, and his one anti-drug message for the kiddies to follow is to tell death stick dealers to go home & rethink their lives. Lucas knows what's up!

 

It's a liquid that I assume is either drank or injected. There's a picture of them in the visual dictionary.

Hmmm...

 

Ewok's are smoking something as well... Endor Tobbacco? Or something more shamanistic....

 

"Yoda Has his Gimmer stick"

The gimmer stick is full of nutrients not drugs.

 

It was iocaine powder

 

When I was young, and that I found out about Spice Pirates, I just though Jabba really liked his Cinnamon Donuts

 

Apparently deathsticks are distilled Ixelta Cilona, and can be used to "spike" a drink, or can be hardened into a smokable form.

I seem to remember that the Gimmer Stick has Hallucengenic Properties... I believe I got that from the ESB Novel, but it's been a while. Anyone Else remember that?

Besides busting slythmongers is like freeing slaves, not that important to Jedi...

 

I think the dictionary says deathsticks are a narcotic. But the name has "death" in it, how could anyone not know it would kill them?

 

I think the name "death" is part of the apeal. Forbiden and dangerous... that is what the Youngsters want....

 

"I just though Jabba really liked his Cinnamon Donuts "

lol, maybe he likes trippy doughnuts.

 

"It was iocaine powder"


How could you tell? iocaine is odorless and colorless, nearly impossible to detect.

 

From what I've heard on a death sticks thread, is that having one death stick significantly reduces your lifespan. So if you have a few, you'll die!
