Maintaining Your Addiction
If you want to ride the spice waves, then make sure you've always got some on hand. If you want to save on money, go Aligned and use the One in Many from to replicate your vial as and when required. It's kind of like having the mother for the sourdough bread you tried to make during lockdown.
- Taking the pure stuff (vials of melange extract) when you get the twinges.
- Taking the street stuff (lumps of melange) when you get the twinges.
- How many lumps do you have to eat to lower addiction stages?
- Ajidamal

Interaction with Psionic Races
Psionic races will get a 100% chance of a permanent talent pop, but may or may not become addicted anyway.
[OOC Agun] 100% chance you'll get one with melange as a psi-race, I forget if you get addicted or not.
