Golden Yaama is a yellowy powder, usually burnt in bubble pipes, and the fumes inhaled. It is a mild narcotic, producing a vague euphoric sense of well-being whilst diminishing the user's attention to the world around him. Not very addictive, its use is legal throughout Imperial and post-Imperial lands.Black yaama is a dark resin, gained from harvesting the yaama flowers at a later stage of development. Its fumes are acrid, so it is commonly applied by melting some of the resin onto acupuncture needles which are then inserted under the skin. Black yaama gives a much more intense experience and is highly addictive, hence it is generally illegal.</blockquote>
