Crafting Poison
Using a Poisoner’s Kit, a character can craft poison doses.
- Crafting requires 1 hour of work and 50 gp value of materials
- Crafting produces PB + 1 doses
- Each batch may include one special ingredient (foraged or harvested)
- Poison batches remain potent for 1 week if properly stored
Applying Poison
- Applying poison requires a Bonus Action
- One dose poisons one weapon or one piece of ammunition
- The poison remains potent for 1 minute
If applied to a weapon, the poison is expended when the weapon deals damage.
If applied to ammunition, the poison is expended when the ammunition deals damage.
If poisoned ammunition misses, the poison loses potency and cannot be reused.
A creature can only suffer this poison’s effect once per turn.
Poison Effect
When a creature takes damage from the poisoned weapon or ammunition:
- The creature must make a Constitution saving throw
Save DC: 8 + Proficiency Bonus + Dexterity modifier
On a failure:
- The creature takes poison damage. (this poison ignores Resistance to Poison damage)
- The creature is Poisoned until the end of your next turn
Poison immunity still applies normally.
