Illicit Connections
- Due to the nature of their products, Cognivia often comes under public scrutiny.
- Moreover, their products are often enhanced or altered by illicit drug labs in the city.
- Often, the goal of this sort of drug tailoring is to remove the traces which might be observed by a drug test.
- This is especially useful to participants of the PCAG, who are not allowed to take any enhancements prior to gameplay.
- Although she did not come out and say it, Serena Duncan seemed to insinuate Ryan Cahill may have made his 269 championship win under the influence of such a drug. (SOURCE LINK)
- Whenever the PXCPD Coroner's Office find a new molecule or compound that people are taking or selling, it is identified and documented on their systems
