churls (FASA)
From Trekipedia
Churls were a serf class on Mythra in the Horatius system. They were kept servile to the theocratic United Temple through anodyne, an hallucinogenic drug which they were required to drink every day. When the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 visited Mythra in 2209, Dr. McCoy devised a counteragent to the anodyne, which was transported into the largest city's water supply; it would give the churls a week without the drug's mind-controlling effects, at which point, their fate would be left to their own devices.[1]
