Legend

this viscous substance, which was essentially fermented seaweed oil produced on the planet Vaynai, had certain medicinal properties. Most of the slick produced on the planet during the height of the New Order was manufactured by Onoron Fil'vye, who controlled nearly all the exports of slick from Vaynai. When the seaweed from Vaynai's shallow oceans was pureed and allowed to ferment, it created an smily oil which stimulated tissue growth when applied to open wounds. When ingested, it helped to accelerate the body's own natural healing. When ingested in large amounts, or when taken as a recreational drug, slick caused a sort of euphoric delusion in the minds of most humanoid races. If improperly stored, slick had a slightly corrosive chemical structure that quickly ate away at plastoid containers, and could weaken most glass jars.
