The Poison skill enables characters to apply toxic substances to various items, such as weapons, food, or potions, with potentially lethal effects. However, exercising caution is paramount, as mishandling poison can pose risks, including self-poisoning.
Poisons can be applied to the sharp surface of up to a medium sized weapon, arrows, or crossbow bolts.
Food and liquid inside of water containers can also be poisoned, which requires no skill to do. Even if transferred to a new container, the liquid will remain contaminated.
If characters are capable of poisoning, it is suggested that it is best kept to themselves as this can very quickly draw the attention of local authorities.
The Poisoning skill relies on dexterity and intelligence.
