Drugs are bad, mmkay?
ON to the business:
Ulfric bans Skooma in all Stormcloak territories. Wandering Khaijiits selling the stuff are robbed and killed. Anyone found using it is fined or imprisoned .
Non-nordic people in Skyrim , esp. Khaijiit and Argonians, begin to feel the bite as they become criminalised by the Stormcloaks, and constantly harassed over their fondness for Skooma .
Ulfric uses anti-Skooma rhetoric similar to our War on Drugs, on how Skooma users are destroying Skyrim's culture, to justify to the population what is in fact racist ethnic cleansing.
To exacerbate the situation, the Khaiijit begin smuggling in a new form of highly refined moon sugar, with powerful effects (colourful vision, sound effects, increased stamina/magicka, increased speed/elemental resistance, dancing animations, reduced control over character's movements and actions)
They use secret magical pathways only known to the Khaijiit race to travel to Elsweyr where the drugs are being produced, an easy way for the remaining populations to accumulate quick gold in times of upheaval, using their abundant resources of moon sugar.
Mai'q the Liar is actually a high level skooma and moon sugar dealer, and the main man in Skyrim. He controls al the Skooma and pure moon sugar coming into Skyrim. He meets his business partners in secret meetings out in the middle of nowhere, which is why you'll occasionally run into him standing around apparently doing nothing. And why he never has to work for a living.
The quest would involve investigating Skooma and Moon sugar illegal trade, either in the pay of the Thalmor, or Ulfric. The player would interrogate a few suspects and find certain evidence, to evenually track down the source to Mai'q. Upon confronting him the player would choose to either attempt to wipe him and his buiness out, or join him in business for fun and profit. Mai'q will of coure have several high level bodyguards and a bunch of sabrecat followers.
There should be a side quest involving spiking an entire town with moon sugar during a festival...
