happedust

Happedust is a fictional substance appearing in the "Dragonlance" series of novels. It is described as a fine, shimmering powder that glows with a faint inner light. Its primary characteristic is its ability to temporarily bestow enhanced physical abilities and heightened senses upon those who inhale or ingest it. Users often report increased speed, strength, and a sharper awareness of their surroundings.

The origin and creation of happedust are not fully explained within the lore, adding to its mysterious nature. It is sometimes associated with ancient magical practices or forgotten alchemical recipes. While beneficial in the short term, prolonged or excessive use of happedust can lead to negative side effects, including addiction, paranoia, and physical deterioration. The substance is often sought after by mercenaries, adventurers, and those seeking an edge in combat or dangerous situations, making it a valuable but risky commodity within the Dragonlance world. Its illicit nature means it is often traded in secret and can be found in the possession of less reputable characters.
