No one in Galactic History is certain of when chemical stimulants were introduced to the battlefield. All that’s known, and could be remembered, is that sentient life has always looked for something that would give their soldiers and warriors an edge over their enemy. Be it through the various advances in technology, numerical superiority, or even chemical stimulants, each factor served its respective purpose. While the former and middling facets would likely result in victory on the larger scale, the latter would prove to be the deciding factor in the smaller-scale and realm of personal combat. For, if a soldier or warrior could surpass their own natural limitations, then they would see themselves triumphing over their enemy.
Thus, with such thoughts in mind, the Neo-Crusaders of the Death Watch began to devise a stimulant of their own. Something that would assist their warriors on the battlefield, and give them the edge they needed to stay sharp in the face of adversity. With the veritable collection of stimulants that were taken during their raids across the Outer Rim, the Mandalorians knew that their supply could only last for so long. With such thoughts in mind, the Neo-Crusaders needed to devise a way to blend what they had on hand - as well as what they could acquire during their travels.
It wasn’t long after that the Mandalorians were able to synthesize several of the base chemical items that were needed to create these stimulants. Utilizing whatever raw materials they had on hand, including other stimulants, the Neo-Crusaders could “recycle” the components to create their desired, and staple combat stim. This meant that there would be a sense of uniformity amongst whatever phials would be created, giving every Neo-Crusader the same effects - despite the unconventionality of the initial ingredients.
Naturally, these chemical highs gave the Crusaders the boost they needed when actively deployed to the battlefield. With more synthetic adrenaline in their system, they would experience a euphoric clarity that would push aside all notions of fatigue. In addition, their reflexes and reaction times would be temporarily improved, so that they could land that telling blow, or slay their opponent outright. But, with every advantage that these stims offered, there came with it a set of drawbacks. The boosted adrenals would see that the Crusader’s metabolism is dramatically increased, making them incredibly hungry - as they had to consume a decent amount of calories to replace what they and their body burned off.
That wasn’t even mentioning the waylaid fatigue, decreased pain threshold, or the other possible side effects that came from an additional additive.
Despite these drawbacks, which - in truth - were common enough with conventional stimulants, the Mandalorian Battle Stimulant would prove to be the perfect addition to the Death Watch and their burgeoning Crusade.
