Yayo
A refined powdery preparation of the psychite drug. When snorted, it produces a rapid euphoric high, dramatically reduces the user's need for rest, and suppresses pain. Like all forms of psychite, it is addictive, though it is not as addictive as the cruder flake.
Because of its high cost and refined appearance, many cultures associate yayo with degenerate wealth. Whether in the throneroom or the boardroom, many hare-brained policy schemes have been developed during yayo-fueled binge parties.

Yayo is a drug of 10% addiction rate that can be produced at a drug lab with 8 psychoid leaves after researching Psychite refining. Consumption will generate the Feeling pumped! Let's do this! thought which has a +35 mood effect and affects the body with:
- Moving: +15%
- Improves joy 80%
- Suppresses pain x50%
- Reduces need for rest 40%
Those with visible tolerance to psychite, will develop chemical damage in the kidneys in a mean time of 120 days.
Crafting
Yayo can be manufactured at a drug lab for 8 psychoid leaves.
Analysis
As a drug, yayo is far preferable to its cousin, flake, with stronger effects and 10% less addictiveness. Psychite tea is considerably weaker, but much less addictive, than both.
On the market, yayo is worth 64% more silver than flake, with a 40% increase in the Work To Make and a 100% increase in ingredient cost. Which drug is more economical depends on which is the greater bottleneck: drug production (yayo is more efficient) or psychoid leaf production (flake is more efficient). If caravan weight is a limiting factor, flake is very slightly more efficient proportional to mass. Yayo can also be further refined into go-juice with the addition of 2 neutroamine.
Psychite tea is economically inferior to both; its only potential advantage is that it does not require a drug lab to produce.
