Deep in the hushed tones of the underground markets, a new recreational drug has started making its way across the world. People are calling it “The Gold Rush”…
Beautiful gold dust with a teal flash make this powder a wonder to behold, but not nearly as fun as its effects:
- A higher libido and increased interest in sex
- Excessive talking
- Intense feelings of pleasure
- A rapid heart rate
- Heightened Senses
- Heightened Creativity
However, as with any drug, it is advised not to overdose:
- Seizures
- Dilated pupils
- Difficulty breathing
- Chest pain
- Irregular heartbeat that is slowed or fast
- High blood pressure
- Stomach pain
- Confusion
- Paranoia and agitation
Industries that are seizing this delectable new hotness:
- Brothels (an addon service)
- Drug Cartels (extra merchandise)
- Piracy/Shipping Companies (as shipping cargo)
- Nobility (as food additives, recreational use, or blackmail)
- Artists/Inventors (as an inspiration boost)
- Fight Clubs (as a performance enhancer)
and many others…
Rumored to have originated in Tiragarde Sound and to have Azerite at its base, the only caution sellers give is “don’t light it on fire.” While it is not a gunpowder like the infamous Lady Ashvane developed, the crystals are still very volatile and sensitive to heat, so it’s best when mixed with foods, drink, snorted or mixed with an injectable liquid. HIGHLY addictive, so be careful!

You can bet defense agencies such as the Stormwind Union and Azeroth Intel Agency will want to know about any sightings or abuse cases within their jurisdictions! So go forth and wreak havoc while we wait for the champions of the universe to stop the re-writing of all creation or some such.))
