'''Poison''' afflicts creatures by delivering [[ability]] damage in two stages. When initially struck, the creature makes a [[fortitude]] [[saving throw]] to resist the poison outright. If this roll fails the character takes a specified amount of ability damage. After one minute has passed the character makes another fortitude saving throw, and if this fails he takes an additional amount of ability damage. It is possible to remove poison before the second round of ability damage is delivered by using the [[heal (skill)|heal]] skill or the [[neutralize poison]] spell. While the spell will also cure ability damage, the skill will not. The ability damage received from poison can be removed by [[rest]]ing.

While the spell will also cure ability damage, the skill will not. By default, poisons (excluding [[on-hit]] poisons) are [[magical effect]]s, and thus both the poison and its ability reduction can be removed by dispelling or [[resting]]. (On-hit poisons are [[extraordinary effect]]s, so removed by resting but not dispelling.) A creature under the influence of a poison is immune to further applications of poison.

Poison

Poison afflicts creatures by delivering ability damage in two stages. When initially struck, the creature makes a fortitude saving throw to resist the poison outright. If this roll fails the character takes a specified amount of ability damage. After one minute has passed the character makes another fortitude saving throw, and if this fails he takes an additional amount of ability damage. It is possible to remove poison before the second round of ability damage is delivered by using the heal skill or the neutralize poison spell. While the spell will also cure ability damage, the skill will not. By default, poisons (excluding on-hit poisons) are magical effects, and thus both the poison and its ability reduction can be removed by dispelling or resting. (On-hit poisons are extraordinary effects, so removed by resting but not dispelling.) A creature under the influence of a poison is immune to further applications of poison.

The standard poisons defined by the game are the following, listed with the two sets of damage inflicted and the DC of the saving throws.
