Origin[]

Jonestown was the informal name for the People Temple Agricultural Project formed by Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple. Jones was the leader of the American religious organization located in northwestern Guyana. It became internationally notorious when nine hundred and eighteen people died in 1978. All but two were killed by cyanide poisoning the other two by righteous suicide. The event was called a 'Revolutionary suicide' by Jones as evident on an audio tape he had left behind.

Effects[]

Always full, if drunk by people who believe in the owner they will die, those who don’t believe in his or her cause wont. Victims have traces of cyanide in their blood stream but tests show regular fruit punch.

Was removed from General Gnassingbe Eyadema's collection upon his incarceration
