The terms are described below. Note that some of these are real-life poisons and should NOT EVER be considered for anything other than game use. I REPEAT, THIS DOCUMENT IS ONLY FOR A GAME!! Definitions: Poison: Some form of harmful substance that exists in naturally with no alterations from PC's (Other than the collecting of said poison) Toxin: A damaging substance that does NOT occur in nature. A toxin must be produced manualy by an alchemist or assassin. Mixture: A substance that is used as a poison, but must be made and produced by magic. Venom, Spit:A sdamaging substance that is produced ONLY within the glands of an animal. Generally thought to be the strongest of the poison types, but also the hardest to collect. Acid: A corrosive substance that either exists in nature, is produced by an animal gland, or is produced by someone. Causes damage upon contact but can usually be washed off upon initial contact to stop damage, unlike a poison. ----------------------------------------------------------------- - Forms of Poisons - Ingestive: This form of poison is the most common. To effect a creature, it must first ingest the poison. This means that the creature must eat the poison one way or another. Getting a poison in this form is of a normal cost. Insinuative: This form of poison will effect a creature just by getting it into it's blood stream. This is the form of poison that is used on weapons. (And in specialized weapons as a Dagger of Venom). This form of poison costs an extra 50% to create (Cost * 1.5) Contact: This form of poison will effect a creature just by coming in contact with the poison. This is one of the most expensive and most dangerous forms. Many a user has slain themselves through carelessness. This form of poison costs 300% normal cost (Cost * 3) NOTE: This form of poison is easily bypassed by thick gloves. However I have heard of an assassin which mixes acid and poison for just that sort of case. Gas: This form of poison is very dangerous. It will effect EVERYTHING within range. You will have to pay a pretty gold piece for any alchemist to add an oxidizing agent to a poison and it's EXPENSIVE to ask someone to risk their life for that. This form costs 1000% normal costs (Cost * 100). The normal effect is a sealed vial which when broken will produce a 20' x 20' x 20' cloud of gas. Antidotes: Antidotes are available if a sample of the poison is made available. The antidote usually cost 120% of the purchace price of the poison. Antidotes take approximately one week to create, and must be administered within 2 rounds of the toxification to be effective. If no sample of the toxin is availible, one cam be distilled from a blood sample, but that will take approximately a month and a 1,000 extra gold (by then it's too late anyway). ----------------------------------------------------------------- - NOTE TO GM'S - These poison (toxins...etc...) have not been assigned any price or dosage for effect (with few exceptions). These things are up to you. This also goes for availability of these and antidotes (Note thought that there are a few that have no known antidote!) The only other note I should make is to keep these in control. To many can really throw a game out of balance. For assassins to study these, I usually allow them on type (Poison, Toxin, venom...etc...) to learn and they may learn how to use, collect, produce.. it from 5th level on. For each level afterwards, they may learn one more from that type of poison. ----------------------------------------------------------------- MANY OF THESE ARE TAKEN FROM OTHER BOOKS AND ARE ACKNOLEDGED HERE. MY THANKS TO THE AUTHORS FOR ALLOWING ME TO MAKE THE GAME MORE INTERESTING.

This is an odorless oil that is effective on non- humanoid creatures - except for humans and demi-humans. It works only by insinuation. It's effects are the same regardless of dosage and appear 1-4 (1d4) rounds after application. Huld causes severe muscle spasms involving nausea and the loss of motor control, balance, and speech - lasting for 1-6 (1d6) rounds. During this time the victim is helpless, but by no means an easy target since he/she/it is thrashing around wildly and unpredictable. Mental processes are totally uneffected (IE: Psionics or other communication can be initiated or continued, and in some cases a psionic ability can be used to control or stop the poisons effects). A peticular individual will be 95% resistant to Huld for a period of 10-21 (1d10+9) days after exposure to it, and thus repeated doses will not be effective. Huld will effect all individuals Humbaba poison Save vs. poison or take 10-80(10d8) damage.
