Toxicant Agent

To be a Toxicant Agent is to not only understand nature's dangers, but to wield them as powerful weapons, tools to strike down foes as you infect their blood. Poisons and venoms will seep into their veins and turn them into lifeless husks.

Apprentice Agent (Injury Poisons)

When you select this archetype at 3rd level, you gain the ability to create powerful toxins. After a long rest, you may prepare one injury poison and one contact poison, detailed in Poison List below. Once you take a long rest, your prepared poisons are no longer prepared, and you must prepare your choice of toxins again. Your poisons' saving throw DC is the same as your spell save DC.

Unless stated otherwise, you have a number of uses for each injury poison prepared equal to your proficiency bonus, and if a poison which is applied to a melee weapon or ammunition is used against a creature, then the poison becomes no longer applied. All expended uses of this feature are regained on a short or long rest.

Corrosive Ooze

While this poison is prepared, it can be thrown at a creature within 30 feet that you can see as an action. When you throw it, you must make a ranged weapon attack which you have proficiency with against the target using your Dexterity modifier. If the target is hit, its AC is reduced by 2 for either 1 minute or until the creature takes its action to remove the toxin. A creature cannot be affected by this poison if it is already afflicted with it unless it is inflicted by a different creature than that which inflicted the active effect.

Scorpion Sting

When you prepare this poison after a long rest, or when you take a long rest with this poison prepared, you may apply it to one weapon in your possession.

The damage inflicted by this feature increases to 2d8 at 7th level, and 3d8 at 14th.

Shadow Essence

While this poison is prepared, you may apply it to any melee weapon or ammunition as a bonus action. If you successfully hit a creature with the affected weapon, the creature must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature's attack rolls are reduced by 2 for 1 minute, or until it takes an action to remove the poison. A creature cannot be affected by this poison if it is already afflicted with it unless it is inflicted by a different creature than that which inflicted the active effect.
