Banthazolate, an illicit drug appearing as a green powder, induced psychedelic hallucinations upon ingestion. Around 31 BBY, a competing organization to Mothven Star Trading tampered with a shipment intended for Mothven's main office on the planet Cularin. The parcel was rigged with both a bomb and banthazolate valued at 50,000 credits on the black market; the perpetrators intended for the explosion to spread the drug throughout Mothven's facilities. Nevertheless, prior to its arrival, the couriers contracted for its transport were apprehended by the Office of Peace and Security—a regional law enforcement agency—who then seized the banthazolate.
