If extracted (a dangerous practice in itself), cilhi oil can be used as a drug; when administered via subdermal needles to slowly release into subcutaneous fat, reacts with wetwiring, implants and nearby EM static to cause a jittery, tactile sensation throughout the body, as well as alternating waves of relaxation and sudden energy.


A drug, [[Cilhi Oil]], can be extracted in small quantities from the fish.

A shoaling fish native to Uycheon III, cilhi are small marine fish that generate electrical energy and secrete a highly conductive oil which they use to resist the effects of the extreme cold common to their native climes, and weaponize against prey, injecting a small amount of the oil with a bite before zapping the victim with an enhanced electrical discharge. A single bite may simply deliver a nasty sting, but when an entire school hunts the same target, the discharge can be enough to instantly cook flesh.

A drug, Cilhi Oil, can be extracted in small quantities from the fish.
