Drackmarian methane grenade

A Drackmarian methane grenade was an explosive weapon invented on, a planet with a methane-based atmosphere. The grenade contained pressurized methane; upon explosion it would release the gas into a surrounding area of a few meters. Though it could kill more sensitive species or in a confined space, it was often used to disable oxygen-breathing sentients quickly.

During his apprenticeship to Suwo Tolp, Tirien Kal-Di encountered Drackmarian methane grenades once or twice. In 1,386 BBY, he observed a new use for them: as a form of poison for beings large enough to ingest them. Tirien recognized one in time to save Runganna the from eating it.
