| ==Description==
| |
| Stimulant patches, often shortened to just "stim patches," are meant to give the user a burst of energy and allow them to continue functioning through fatigue. They are applied by rubbing or affixing it against the user's forearm until the stimulants begin to take effect.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENVOYC6|Env|Chapter=6}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENVOYC13|Env|Chapter=13}} After repeated uses, these patches leave the skin where it is applied raw.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENVOYC16|Env|Chapter=16}} This stimulation comes at a cost, however: reliance on the patches for energy leaves the user with uncontrollable shaking.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENVOYC17|Env|Chapter=17}} After five days, the user begins to hallucinate and experience other extreme symtoms, which causes that point to be the limit for how long one can rely on the patches without sleeping.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENVOYC22|Env|Chapter=22}}

| During the [[Carrow Conflict]], [[Ellis Gass]], the [[Governor]] of [[Suraka]], used stim patches in excess in order to remain constantly awake and continue preforming her duties during the occupation of her city by the [[Voice of Maardoth]] and the [[Sharquoi]] controlled by [[Hekabe]].{{Ref/Reuse|ENVOYC6}} This led to the deterioration of her mental state over the course of the conflict, leaving her irritable and fatigued.{{Ref/Reuse|ENVOYC13}}{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENVOYC23|Env|Chapter=23}} [[Melody Azikiwe]] was also administered a stim patch by [[Commander]] [[Greg van Eekhout]] in [[Gila Station]] in order to lessen the effects of the her recent surgery.{{Ref/Novel|Id=ENVOYC12|Env|Chapter=12}}
