Stimulant/Legends
- "Ha! Stimulants make a warrior out of even the weakest humans."
- ―Canderous Ordo
A stimulant, also referred to as a stim or stim drug,[2] was a chemical mixture targeted towards the adrenal system, in the form of a one-time use shot, that was injected into the bloodstream in order to provide a boost to the physical capabilities of the user. This enhancement was most commonly used by individuals that were preparing for or already in the midst of a battle. The Mandalorian Canderous Ordo was adept at preparing stims, which he freely offered to both Revan[3] and the Jedi Exile[4] during his travels with them.
The effect was described as "like ten hours of good, deep sleep, and four square meals" until they wore off.[5] Stim drugs could be found in medkits.[2]
Saol-sar sold stimulants in the Senate Commercial District on Courscant during the Cold War,[6] as did Valorn Skez aboard Carrick Station.[7]
