They were instantly hooked, and spend their days either fighting off the hangover, or looking for more drugs. They learned to manufacture the drug by themselves, and many have died wandering into the swamps to find the funghi that is used in the recipe.The players have met some of the halflings from this village on their journeys. One is a cleric who was trying to gather up materials for a  cheap Remove Disease (addiction) potion, so she didn't have to spend all her spells all the time to help her village.The village itself sits on top of a lake, with huge crocodiles swimming beneath. They built their entire village on a lake so in the event of an invasion, they could just get in their boats and sail or row to safety.Have any of you encountered this type of situation before, and what sort of story hooks can I throw at them?</blockquote>
