Poison Making
Poison Making(Rogue, 2)
Ability: Intelligence
Modifier: Special
This proficiency gives the character knowledge of manufactured poisons of all types. With this ability, the character is able to manufacture poisons of all kinds, given the time and materials needed. The types of poisons decide any penalties to the chance of success, from +1 for simple nausea effects to ‐10 for rare immediate death poisons. In addition, the character can also make the antidote for any poison he has manufactured himself with an additional normal proficiency check. The character may also identify poisons he did not create. This requires a proficiency check and close examination of the poison or object thought to be poisoned. At times, the character must sample the poison (putting himself at risk) to determine its effects. However, any saving throws are made with a +4 bonus when a successful proficiency check is made. Once a poison has been identified, and its character to sample the poison. A proficiency check at half the normal chance for success is made, assuming the poison is available. If successful, the character is able to concoct the appropriate antidote, assuming the materials are nearby. If a creature has already been poisoned, or the poison is not availablefor sampling, then the character has only a 1 in20 chance of concocting an antidote. The rolls for antidote concoction are madesecretly by the DM. If the roll fails, the character knows he is unable to concoct an antidote. However, if the roll is 20, anantidote is made, but is ineffective, wasting the character and perhaps the victim’s time.This skill also allows a PC to remove the poisonous glands from an animal/arachnid/monster that uses poison. He must make asuccessful proficiency check at ‐2 to succeed (Note that this roll is vs. dexterity, not intelligence). If he fails his roll by more than2, or rolls a 20, the PC has managed to poison himself with all the consequences. Wearing special gloves (cost = 10gp), the PCmust fail the roll by 6 or more to get poisoned.
