The violet-hued fungus known as Xabar was a species that naturally grew on the planet of Xagobah. This fungus had tentacles that, when touched by unfamiliar objects or beings, secreted toxins, inducing a complete but passing paralysis of the muscles. Due to its effects resembling rigor mortis, Xabar was used as a drug by young people on the streets who were interested in the possibility of the afterlife.
