The only drugs I know of in Tamriel are tobacco and moon sugar, and by an offshoot of the latter, skooma. I'm sure there has to be more. Do they have, say, marijuana (or some equivalent), hallucinogenic mushrooms, some kinda of snorted drug like cocaine? Any other totally unique drugs that I've overlooked? As someone who's in the business of roleplaying a couple of drug-addicted characters, I need to know this stuff.

As for alcohol, I know each region has its wines, whiskeys, ales and spirits and I'm curious what all they are. I don't know much beyond what Morrowind and Oblivion had. Again, I have a character that drinks a lot, so for her, and for my own curiosity, it'd be nice to know.

Also, sorry about posting two threads so close together. I thought of something and needed to ask about it. ><

Well, they probably do have things like Dope and Cocaine, but they would have to change them to things like X-Rad and Ultrajet! [/grumbling about the old Fallout 3 ban for Australia]

Anyway, for the alcohol abuse, I'm sure wherever you are, i.e Colovian Highlands has a whiskey called Colovian Whiskey? :shrug: I like to think that in areas such as this you have a bit of creative licence to call them whatever you want

Daggerfall had http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Daggerfall:BIOG%3F%3FT0.TXT_Files/Misc._Item_Codes#Drugs. Don't know what they did, though, and can't seem to find any info of it.
I'll lurk around some more, see what I can find.

While not neccesarily in Tamriel, the Shivering Isles introduced http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Shivering:Felldew and http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Shivering:Greenmote.

Oh and the Hist tree in the Fighters Guild missions made your pretty wacky too Although that was apparently only because it was tainted because of it's move to Cyrodiil..

Or tainted because you're not a long-time using Argonian.

Why did only Skooma make it to Oblivion, whereas Moon Sugar was sadly left out?

and I think the machinery that they "plugged in" could have something to do with it too.

Cyrodiil and in particular Colovia seems to show an established wine culture.

Cyrodiil was too classy and sophisticated for a powdery drug. Plus, it was too easy to detect a person who was using. IMHO lol

Strange that there was a lot more Cyrodillic Brandy in Morrowind. But hey, it's an imported liquor over there.

Bungler's Bane has nagative side effects, possible hallucinogenic? I don't know, but there are lots of shrooms in MW, might as well check those out.

I did some experimentation on the subject a while back. It was mostly as pertains to gameplay, so I'll leave that info http://www.gamesas.com/bgsforums/index.php?s=&showtopic=707711&view=findpost&p=10211948. Here's the lore relevant stuff:

Sujumma is my favourite liquor from Morrowind, several of my fighting characters carried around as much as they could carry, as chugging them helped when outmanned in a fight

I was addicted to that stuff! Or at least one of my character's were But Nords can take that sort of thing..

you can get addicted to fortify health potions in morrowind, you literally need them to live if you take too many.

i think the daggerfall drugs did have some hallucegenic effect, though rarely happened. sometimes the screen would shake like you got hit and you'd hear a bunch of noises at once.

:P
Not to mention the Redguard's adrenaline rush.
