Toxicology<br />

This skill allows a character to do several<br />

things: find a poison, identify a poison, and to properly<br />

extract or prepare a poison. This is not to be<br />

confused with Herbalism, which is instead concerned<br />

with the healing effects of plants on wounds or ailments.<br />

Check: Roll 3d10 and apply the modifier<br />

from the Intelligence ability. A separate check must<br />

be made for finding, identifying, and extracting or<br />

preparing poison. Finding poison means that the<br />

character is attempting to find it in nature, such as<br />

searching a forest for a poisonous plant. The exact<br />

poison found is determined by the Aedile. A list of<br />

poisons is provided in Chapter 17: Natural Substances.<br />

Identifying poison means that if a character beholds<br />

a substance that they suspect is poisonous such as a<br />

tankard of beer handed to them by an immoral<br />

kobold, then they may possibly detect whether or<br />

not the wine is poisoned. Finally, extracting poison<br />

refers to properly removing it from nature, such as<br />

from a spider’s sac. Preparing poison means to properly<br />

prepare the extracted poison, such as how much<br />

to mix with what kind of liquids, such as wine, etc.<br />
