Who doesn't love death sticks?... Well, apart from Obi-Wan Kenobi, of course.
In one of the surprisingly memorable parts from Attack of the Clones, Anakin and Obi-Wan track bounty hunter Zam Wesell into a Coruscant bar. While there, as Anakin is hit on by the local ladies, Obi-Wan finds himself to be a potential victim of peer pressure. Star Wars' equivalent to your local drug dealer, whose name was apparently Elan Sel'Sabagno (and commonly referred to as "Sleazebaggano", seriously) offered Obi-Wan some death sticks.
Luckily, Jedi aren't pressured very easily. Instead of making a successful sale, he ended up rethinking his entire life’s decisions. So close.
Death sticks were never mentioned again within the entire Star Wars saga, until they made a surprise cameo in Rogue One. That's right, the same white cigarette-shaped hallucinogenic could once again be seen strapped to the helmet of a rebel soldier. What can we say, the tough times of war can lead to desperate measures.
But seriously kids, don't accept death sticks from Sleazebagganos.
