NOX


LOCATION OF ORIGIN: Planet Marseilles, Provence.


BIOLOGY: Nox is compound produced by a bacterium that lives in a symbiotic relationship with a echinoderm (much like the sea stars of Sol.) The echinoderm is exceedingly fragile and can only be successful kept planet side. The bacterium, however, can be extracted and cryogenically frozen and transported elsewhere. All attempts at synthesis has failed to reproduce the proper mixture of psilocybin and organic compounds. Strangely, nox is known to have a significantly reduced effect on users of cardimine.


BIGGEST DISTRIBUTORS: The Unione Corse owns several production sites on the planet, from which they produce the bacterium. They then freeze the nox for movement to Monaco Base, a small depot in Mere Mediteraniee. Rumors on our Freeports suggest that there is a new, more expensive variety of nox on the market, as a result of an off-planet drug being synthesized. Their main shipping route runs through from Provence to Leeds, where the war torn environment has caused a bloom in crime. There are two routes out of Gallia. The best for smugglers passes through the backwaters of Orkney, Lewis, and Edinburgh. Other routes run to Rheinland and Liberty, where they are relatively anonymous.


VULNERABLE AREAS OF INFLUENCE: Their current vulnerability is concentrated to the Lorraine System, where you have your largest influence, Torino Base, built by yours truly, the Gallic Junkers, where we and the Brigands already purchase cardimine.
