Morphine (no ontology)

From Mazeworld

Morphine is a well-known analgesic substance. It is an opiate, like other drugs such as codeine, with which it is closely related (both are produced from opium poppy plants). It is commonly used in medicine as a strong painkiller, against acute and severe pain, used in many situations such as the treatment of myocardial infections, Caesarean sections, and more.

Morphine has also been known for being used recreationally, as it is a substance known for causing addictions, and strong withdrawal, typical of opioids. Morphine pills, known as MS Contin among other names, are commonly used, although morphine may be administered through other ways, such as intravenous injection via syringe.
Demethylated codeine with pyridine may also be used to illegally manufacture morphine, and said substance can be acetylated to produce heroin.

Strategy

Morphine is one of the major analgesic (aka painkiller) drugs in Mazeworld, and is the most powerful against Pain compared to the others. Like its close cousin codeine, its main effect causes Pain decreases along with other negative side-effects.

In this case, Pain is relieved by 75%, which is 25% more than Ketamine, the closest substance in Pain relieving efficiency.
When administered, morphine also delivers another effect, unique to this substance, known as narcotic dampening, which is useful to female and otoko contestants; should their Impregnation reach 100% and become pregnant, they can survive giving birth to whatever creature last impregnated them, if they are under the effects of morphine when it happens.

Morphine's only negative effect, but quite important one, is a reduction of Strength by 30%. It is extremely detrimental to melee weapon users, but the drug is notable for not affecting accuracy. It should be saved for Pain or pregnancy emergencies, due to its cost and high efficiency.

Aside from the usual methods of finding (at random in the rooms or purchased in a hospital room), Morphine can notably be found in MEDAID2 crates.

Being a syringe, it is strongly required the drug is kept until the contestant finds a medic or a peaceful scientist to identify the pill, as it shares its appearance with Cyanide, Epinephrine, Heroin, Lorazepam, and a form of Placebo.
