| Many Hollow Ones dabble in substance abuse and are often adept at creating the drugs they use or sell. This particular rote was created by a Hollower named Hopping Johnny as retaliation against a pusher who tried to steal his stash. The mage using the rote changes the excess inorganic matter carried in the target's bloodstream into a toxic chemical substance or a powerful stimulant or depressant. The victim's own body will react to the substance just as if the person had ingested the drug. This usually leads to an effect that perfectly mimics a massive overdose. Hopping Johnny retrieved his valuables with no ill side-effects, but his victim's cause of death was listed as an "accidental overdose of meth-amphetamine." |
