Myst
Myst is a hallucinogenic weapon and a derivative of the Muse formula, developed by Leon Halloran. It is a silvery crimson liquid encased in airtight bottles of thick opaque glass.
Unliked Muse, Myst is made using negative or violent memories.
Use
Crude in its application, a bottle of Myst is typically thrown or flung to the ground to break its encasement. Once exposed to air, Myst dissipates as a pinkish smog. A single bottle of Myst produces sufficient fog to fill approximately three train carriages.
Effects
When inhaled, Myst will cause its victims to hallucinate - reality and hallucination overlap, and may cause disorientation. Persons especially susceptible to psychoactive substances will react very negatively to Myst.
Effects last for twenty minutes to an hour, depending on how much Myst was inhaled. Skilled Legilimens and Occlumens may find it easier to suppress the effects.
