Poisons and Venoms

New rules are being added to the bestiary on venomous creatures. Such creatures don't need to be able to cause stuns or wounds to be able to harm their target. The target of a venomous attack makes a soak roll of zero plus any bonuses for armour or thick skin - they do not get their basic soak. The 'damage' roll is generally a straight 1d20 - if it equals or exceeds the soak roll, then no damage is caused but the target suffers the venom effects.

Poison Statistics

Poisons, venoms and other toxins have the following statistics:

* Potency: Both the initial health difficult, and how quickly it drops. * Duration: How long before each health check. * Immediate: Yes or no. If yes, a check is made on initial delivery, otherwise the first check is made at the end of the first duration. * Effects: List of effects each time a check is failed.
