Vanilla lore Wrote:"All Outcasts are thoroughly addicted to and genetically altered by the drug Cardamine, produced exclusively on the Outcasts homeworld. Withdrawal symptoms include a progressively worsening sickness which leads to the death of the addict if additional Cardamine is not obtained. Outcasts wear masks to dispense small doses of Cardamine into their system constantly, and prefer to sleep in Cardamine sleep chambers. This intense addiction ensures absolute loyalty throughout the Outcasts themselves (with perhaps some minor internal conflicts), and better, ensures that the Outcasts' lackeys who use the Cardamine they distribute remain loyal to the Outcasts in the future."
Yeah, this is why all these fringe Maltese factions piss me off. Even Commune has some stuff about leaving Malta, and let me just say "one does not simply leave Malta". Cardamine, in its processed form, is orange gas, or orange aerated powder. This does not imply seeds which would be used to grow more elsewhere. I haven't seen an event about shipping Cardamine seeds, and something that would destroy the criminal underworld that much should AT LEAST be put in an event. Outcasts have had a monopoly on Cardamine since vanilla, and with the exception of stabaline, which is used for treating cardamine addictions, nothing has even come close to touching that hold on the entire criminal underworld.
Long story short: Please, for the love of God Almighty, care about the Vanilla lore.
