Modern Drug Addictions

Re: Another idea to add

I am definatly not the biggest expert on drugs around... however I did have an idea on what to use it for in a Modern campaign.

Perhaps tweek the campaign setting around and have it so when the character is having a "high" he/she can see the true appearance of monsters, so where to the party the buisnessman is a fat jerk, to the junkie he could be a mind-sucking Illithid!

A simple thought I was thinking of using in my campaign

Now there's an interesting idea!

Here's a tangential question for you - what do you guys think the effects of making potions addictive would be? Or at least habit forming? I can imagine a smart hero getting hooked on potions of intelligence, or the infiltrator getting hooked on invisibility potions - so much so that they are using them not only when they "need" to for missions, but just because...

Or drinking healing potions even when they are at full HP...
