Shmowder

Pathologic 2=

Shmowder is a type of cure in Pathologic 2. It can completely cure the Sand Plague from the player or an infected NPC. If used on the player, it will have a dramatic affect on their total health, and may result in death.

Shmowder's can be obtained through trading with Teensy, trading with the Fellow Traveler and the Dead Item Shop, collecting them from children's caches, during a game of hide and seek on Day 2, or trading a Leash with a Doghead in the Nutshell. The game of hide and seek and trading the leash are the only guaranteed sources of Shmowders. All other sources are chance spawns.

"A box filled with a yellowish powder. Guess it's for some kind of game."

- Haruspex's Hover detail before the plague appears

"Smells like medicine. A dangerous idea for a game. Destroying this would be the responsible thing to do."

- Haruspex's Touch detail before the plague appears "A box filled with powder made of assorted ground pills. Extremely harmful, but somehow cures sand pest."

- Haruspex's Hover detail after the plague appears

"A ridiculous mixture of random pills cures sand pest. Maybe it's because the plague itself is a combination of many diseases? It attacks every organ, every Layer, and changes every day."

- Bachelor's Hover details

"Powders, or "shmowders," as the kids call them, can sometimes cure any disease. Or at least they used to. Khan, the children's leader who now rules the Polyhedron, claims that all the real "shmowders" were used up long before the epidemic."

Pathologic 2
"Cures sand pest. Reminds me of older days."

- Haruspex's Hover details

"This "shmowder" is very old, made ten years ago, or even more. Which is impossible, since the First Outbreak only happened five years ago."

Shmowder (Pathologic)=

Shmowder is a type of cure in Pathologic. It can completely cure the Sand Plague from the player or an infected NPC. When used by the player, the Plague will be completely cured and health will be reduced down to only 5 points. If health was less than 5 when the Shmowder was taken, it will not change.

"A mix of randomly chosen drugs (mostly antibiotics). Those "shmowders" were created by children to "play Plague." The random recipe produced an unexpected result—the powder completely removes the effects of Sand Plague infection, but severely damages health."
