Tempo

Tempo is a drug in GrizzlyScholar's D6 Cyberpunk Campaign, Motor City Adventures.

Background
Tempo is a BAD (Bioengineered Awakened Drug), derived from magical plants and trees commonly found in Latin America. In its refined form, it is a crystalline powder with an oily shimmer; however, it is most commonly taken in the form of an adhesive "slap-patch," and absorbed through the skin.

Tempo causes a strong euphoric feeling, an an enhanced sense of empathy towards others. It also causes a dangerous level of over-confidence, and a resistance to pain, meaning Tempo-Junkies are often known to perform dangerous stunts while high, and sometimes even take multiple serious wounds without noticing.

It is also a hallucinogen - and, because of its magical nature, it grants even non-awakened individuals the ability to "see" into the Astral Plane, as if they had the Third Eye spell.

Mechanical Information
Using Tempo grants the recipient the Third Eye spell, even if they are not a Sorceror. It also allows the user to ignore Dice Penalties due to Wounds. This does not mean the user can't die, of course - they just don't notice the pain.
