'''Narcozine Gas''' is a chemical device used as a [[weapon]] by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]]. When inhaled, the gas quickly causes paralysis, and extended exposure causes pulmonary edema (swelling of fluid in the lungs), which can quickly become fatal due to suffocation and drowning.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', page 127</ref>
Narcozine gas is installed as a security measure in certain [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] bases, like [[CASTLE Base]] on [[Reach]], in order to neutralize potential threats to security. [[Artificial intelligence|AI constructs]] inside these bases are given broad discretionary powers, with the power to use this gas on anyone who violates protocol and accesses classified information. The AI [[Araqiel]] threatened to use this gas against [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Cathrine Halsey]] at the base. In return, Halsey activated the AI's fail-safe function, erasing Araqiel's [[Riemann matrix]].{{Ref/Reuse|First Strike}}


The UNSC doesn't actually use the agent in battle. It is instead installed as a security measure in [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]] bases, like [[CASTLE Base]] located on [[Reach]], in order to neutralize potential threats to security. [[Artificial Intelligence|AIs]] inside these bases are given broad discretionary powers, with the power to use this gas on any [[humans|Humans]] who violate protocol and access classified information.<ref>'''[[Halo: First Strike]]''', pages 127-128</ref>
