Intent: Expand on a Legends substance that only has a very brief description on Wookieepedia.

Canon Link: Hurluthrombic Gas.
Permissions: N/A.
Primary Source: Carbogen, Article about fear-inducing substances.
PRODUCTION INFORMATION
Name: Hurlothrombic Compound
Manufacturer: Revenant Industries.
Affiliation: Archangel Research and Design, approved buyers.
Market Status: Closed-Market.
Modularity: Highly modular. The Compound can be produced in gas, liquid or even powder form.
Production: Limited
Material: Chemicals and Pharmaceutical Components.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Classification: Chemical Substance
Method of Consumption: Inhalation, Ingestion, injection, and Dermal Absorption are all possible based on the state of the chemicals matter. The substance can be consumed numerous times with continuous doses having prolonged and more potent effects.
Average Life: 1 Hour.
Nutritional Value/Allergies/Side Effects/ Purpose: Zero nutritional value. The purpose of this compound is psychological warfare.
SPECIAL FEATURES
It is said that Emperor Palpatine amused himself by flooding his audience chambers with hurlothombric gas to leave his guests in a constant state of fear. Vaguely sadistic mind games aside, the Hurlothombric Compound is literally a terror weapon. It is meant to instill feelings of fear, terror and dread in those who have been exposed to it. The Compound is not meant to physically hurt an enemy directly, but can sow chaos among the ranks of an unprepared foes. To this end, the substance is highly modular - gas for grenades or bombardment, liquid to poison someone's drink or water supplies etc. In its gasuous form, it is an odourless, colourless gas absorbed through pores and inhaled.
The substance can evoke feelings of stress, anxiety normally associated with nightmares, fear, dread and downright terror. The substance is not lethal, but induces fear and panic, which can still be very dangerous. However, it is excellent if one wants to force an evacuation or retreat. Its traits make it a good crowd control weapon.
Thus while the most obvious application is as a terror weapon or a means of torture, it actually has less harmful and more practical uses. After all, an enemy who retreats in fear may actually live...instead of being maimed or chopped in half by a lightsabre. Spies and the like may also find use for the substance, as it can be good for say creating a distraction or causing a target to act irrationally.

SPECIAL FEATURES
- Successful exposure to the compound triggers chemical reactions in the brain that produce fear and dread.
- Highly versatile. Can be released through a variety of delivery methods.
- Hurlothrumbic Compound is a substance that produces a state of fear in organic beings that are successfully exposed to it. It affects a target's brain chemistry, triggering sensations of increased anxiety associated with nightmares, fear, dread and paranoia. This makes it a good terror or crowd control weapon, as it is fast-acting, taking only a few minutes before kicking in.
- Gasuous variant is odourless and colourless. It is absorbed through the pores and inhaled. This variant combines hurlothrumbic gas with carbogen (a mixture of oxygen gas and carbon dioxide). Carbogen also triggers a sensation of breathlessness and the panic of not being able to breathe while being perfectly able to breath.
- The Compound is versatile enough to support a variety of delivery methods. It can be loaded into grenades or conversely shells or bombs for bombardment purposes. The compound can also be released into liquid form or as powder. Injection is also feasible.
- Droids are immune.
- While it can induce panic, fear, hallucinations and potentially self-destructive behaviour etc., it does not actually kill or maim a target by itself, regardless of delivery method.
- Weather conditions must be kept in mind when deployed in gasuous form, as strong winds, whether naturally occuring in the atmosphere or generated through wizadry, can dissipate a cloud or conversely cause it to spread over an area that's wider or different from the intended target zone.
- Fully vacuum sealed environmental/armour suits with modern filtration systems and independent oxygen supply will protect a target from the gas.
