Origin[]
Eli Lilly was a Union soldier who went into the pharmaceuticals business after the war ended. His company manufactured and sold drugs wholesale to other pharmacies, making his family a fortune. Two of the early advances he pioneered were creating gelatin capsules to hold medicine and fruit flavoring for liquid medicines. Lilly donated large sums of his wealth to charity for children’s hospitals. He also advocated federal regulation of drugs and use of doctor given prescriptions.
Effects[]
Made by his pharmaceutical line, each pill is coated with a layer of gelatin for easy swallowing. When the user donates away money, the pill will cure any ailment, although it can return. While affected, the user will experience emulsions and other soft semi-solids (toothpaste, ketchup, pudding, clay, etc.) being attracted to them, like the gelatin forms a magnetic field.
