Adan's Blood

About
Adan's Blood is a substance created by the Snake Crest, usually referred to as a narcotic. The substance was created by a combined effort by Jabber and Bolonius, who extracted the substance from monsters. While the substance is named after the Archfiend Adan, it has little to do with him except for his misunderstood role as the "creator" of monsters. Adan's Blood is actually concentrated human desire, which unknowingly manifests as monsters after it is extracted by prayer. The closer Jabber was able to drive monsters toward their base instincts as creatures of desire, the purer the resulting formula, and the closer it came to resembling human blood. As a narcotic, Adan's Blood was highly addictive, and caused its victims to lose their self-control over their more prominent desires. In low doses, the Blood also had the side effect of causing monsters to ignore the user, while in high doses it could allow the user to command monsters. The purest doses of Adan's Blood were given to Snake Crest's administrators, which caused them to become living, monstrous versions of their desire. These monsters were not only used to combat Snake Crest's enemies, but were stolen away after their deaths to be drained of desire by Seydes for his ultimate plan.
