So now my new tiefling's addicted to rhul. Rhul's pretty cool as far as nuclear-powered booze goes, and the RP's fun enough, but I'm a bit concerned about this addiction reaching that stage...you know, "Great job, everyone! Time to divvy the spoils. Lazulei, you can have the Vorpal Short Sword +5, +10 vs. Outsiders." "Excellent! I can get at least a hundred bottles of rhul if I pawn this! Thanks!"

And I've already noticed that it's happened once or twice where I've fed my tiefling a bottle of rhul, only for it to have no effect whatsoever. Kind of like how a cokehead needs to suck down more and more cocaine in order to feel it. (Is drug tolerance really part of Thay's scripting too? That's pretty crazy.)

So on a scale of 1 to 10 -- with 1 being Willie Nelson on marijuana and 10 being Gia Carangi on heroin and who-knows-what-else -- how big of a problem am I looking at with this rhul addiction here?

I believe there are cures out there to either buy or can be found. ;)

Maybe you will become rabid and have to be put down. :P

Apparently, you can also go two or more days without taking the drug, and if you pass two Fortitude Saves in a row, you're clear. Rhul has a Medium addiction, so its DC might not be too terrible. And Lazulei's Constitution is pretty good.

As for whether those are two in-game days or two real life days, well, I guess I'll have to wait and see. Staying off the rhul's going to be hard, though. That stuff really gives you an edge over all those barbarian thugs.

Damn it, Jersto, open your shop already! I need my rhul fix!

[Animayhem]

Rhul can be found several places if one looks. ;)

I know that. But if you pay 400 Talons for "something exotic" and Jersto sics a harpy on you, you're going to want something to wash away the shame immediately afterward. Why walk down to Camoran's Retreat when you can grab something from Jersto without even having to get dressed first? :P
