Nepenthe is a discipline that mimics the feelings produced by drugs, specifically opiates and derived drugs such as Ecstasy or heroin. It is the focus of the Anvari bloodline of the Daeva, an ancient group of drug dealers. Thematically, it is similar to Cachexy and Asphyx, in that its development was partially to aid the user in acquiring drug-tainted Vitae to feed off of.
