Cachin is a most potent extract from the notorious laughing shroom, and is sometimes used in interrogations in kingdoms and countries where actual torture is prohibited by law. Cachin, named after the act of cachinnation (meaning to laugh, and often inordinately loudly so), eventually renders its victims immobile on the floor, where all they can do is laugh uncontrollably. The effects of cachin will eventually fade on their own; after the initial hour, the paralysis lifts, and the laughing will cease 1d6 hours later.
