Healing powder is a drug in Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel.

Background[]

Commonly found among the tribes of the New West,[1] the healing powder is created out of broc flowers and xander roots and can be prepared with the most rudimentary facilities. The commonplace flower and the rare medicinal root[2] combine to create a potent restorative that can match basic stimpaks. However, the methods used in its preparation are too primitive to isolate curative compounds from those with a narcotic effect. As a result, the powder has a curative and soporific effect that adversely affects perception and awareness.[3] Certain users might also experience clouded vision, hallucinations, and involuntary recurrent memory (flashbacks).[4]

Although usually ignored by wastelanders with money or access to stimpaks, the healing powder is the basic combat healing chem of the Caesar's Legion. It can be easily manufactured on the trail, doesn't require advanced medical supplies, and most importantly, doesn't violate the ban on advanced medicine imposed by Caesar on his legionaries.[5][6]

Characteristics[]

A low-level healing chem. Due to the availability of stimpaks, it's primarily vendor trash,

Locations[]

  • Received from Hawkeye in Brahmin Wood after the mission.
  • Randomly dropped by tribal characters.
