This is a fantastic addition to The New World—it adds depth to the culture and expands the mythology of the Owsleys as keepers of sacred knowledge. NEPs being both a spiritual and economic force reinforces the idea that The New World has moved beyond traditional wealth and into a system where enlightenment and well-being are the highest currencies.
I can continue listing more NEPs if you’d like, each with unique properties, origins, and effects. Do you want them to have connections to specific groups, rituals, or historical events within The New World? Maybe certain NEPs are reserved for high-ranking spiritual figures, while others are for everyday use?

This is shaping up to be a truly unique and immersive aspect of The New World! Here’s a list of NEPs, their properties, origins, and effects, with a clear connection to the psychedelic counterculture while fitting within the structured and spiritual framework of The New World:
Natural Enlightenment Products (NEPs)
"For clarity of mind, unity of spirit, and the illumination of the soul."
Endorsed by The New World Association for Mental Well-being and The Department of Spiritual Development.
1. Owsley’s Prism
- Properties: A crystalline substance that, when ingested, allows the user to perceive the full spectrum of reality—both seen and unseen. Colors, sounds, and emotions merge into an indescribable harmony.
- Origins: Named after the ancient alchemist Owsley, who was said to have unlocked the pathways to the infinite through chemical enlightenment. The knowledge of its creation has been preserved by The Owsleys, a lineage of sacred chemists.
- Effects: Induces a profound state of connection to the universe, often accompanied by visions of The Fabric, the energetic web that binds all things. Only available to high-ranking spiritual figures after years of preparation.
2. Dandelion Dust
- Properties: A fine golden powder derived from the sacred dandelion flower, which "does not tell lies." It is believed to enhance one's ability to speak only truth.
- Origins: Harvested at dawn by The Owsleys in secluded groves where wild dandelions grow in perfect spirals.
- Effects: Temporary enhancement of wisdom and articulation; removes self-doubt and deception. Used in truth-seeking ceremonies and legal proceedings in The New World courts.
3. Lucy’s Lantern
- Properties: A bioluminescent liquid extracted from the rare Indigo Nightcap mushroom, believed to have first sprouted where "the sky kissed the earth" during an ancient lightning storm.
- Origins: Found deep in the bioluminescent caverns of The Sacred Underground, tended to by The Owsleys.
- Effects: Grants deep insight into the interconnectivity of all life. Used by The Mystery sect during the Sermon of the Stars. A controlled NEP, only distributed during celestial alignments.

- Effects: Profound inner peace, the sensation of being embraced by a divine maternal presence, and the dissolution of fear. Used during childbirth, rites of passage, and sacred unions.
5. Revolution Red
- Properties: A dark red tea brewed from the Scarlet Jasmine plant, known for its invigorating and mind-sharpening effects.
- Origins: Originally used by the resistance as a stimulant to sharpen the mind before acts of defiance. After The Peaceful Uprising, it was repurposed for meditative and philosophical debates.

6. Strawberry Fields

The substances favored by the Oathers, supplied by the Resistance, are highly addictive, mind-numbing, and spiritually corrosive. Unlike the Natural Enlightenment Products (NEPs) cherished by the Mysterians, these substances are designed to suppress critical thought, blind adherence to authority, and reinforce obedience. These products are procured through the "Joke Economy," a worthless financial system that tricks users into believing they are accumulating wealth while actually enslaving them to the system.
Substances and Liquids of the Oathers' Indulgence
Blank Dust – A fine white powder that erases independent thought and fills the mind with hollow slogans. It is highly addictive and ensures total submission to the Resistance's ideology.
- Effects: Euphoria followed by mental numbness, reduced curiosity, and increased susceptibility to propaganda.
- Origins: Manufactured in secret Resistance laboratories using synthetic compounds.
- Common Usage: Snorted during gatherings where Oathers reaffirm their loyalty to the Resistance.
Oblivion Brew – A thick, syrupy liquid consumed in large quantities to induce forgetfulness and compliance.
- Effects: Temporarily erases memories that challenge the established order, creating an artificial sense of contentment.
- Origins: Distilled from toxic roots and hallucinogenic fungi that block neural pathways linked to critical thinking.
- Common Usage: Consumed during Oath rituals to reinforce the belief in the Joke Economy.
Veil Smoke – A burnt resin that produces a heavy, intoxicating fog, clouding perception and making the user see only what the Resistance wants them to see.
- Effects: Induces hallucinations of an ideal world controlled by the Resistance while masking real-world suffering.
- Origins: Grown in underground plantations overseen by the Resistance’s chemical division.
- Common Usage: Inhaled through ornate pipes during celebrations of “economic prosperity,” despite growing poverty.
Idol Serum – A golden, honey-like liquid injected into the bloodstream, making the user blindly worship Resistance leaders.
- Effects: Triggers irrational devotion, suppresses doubt, and causes users to chant pre-approved slogans.
- Origins: Extracted from genetically modified plants that respond to mass psychological conditioning.
- Common Usage: Mandatory for high-ranking Oathers before major political rallies.
Shackleshot – A fast-acting alcoholic substance that numbs emotions and makes users more susceptible to manipulation.
- Effects: Instant intoxication, loss of inhibition, and extreme aggression toward perceived enemies of the Resistance.
- Origins: Brewed in fortified compounds where former scholars and free thinkers were forced into labor.
- Common Usage: Given freely to Oathers after public executions or mass arrests to celebrate “justice.”
These substances contrast starkly with NEPs, which promote enlightenment, self-awareness, and spiritual liberation. The Resistance, knowing the dangers of true awareness, keeps the Oathers enslaved to these substances, ensuring they remain loyal, distracted, and incapable of questioning their reality.
