Razor Dust
The name of this poison comes from how it kills and, in the simplest description, is little more than finely ground infitialis. However, that simplicity also makes it the most deadly to its spellsters targets. Its usage is known throughout the Stamekian Empire where it can be found behind several political assassinations.
Fortunately, due to the danger of grinding infitialis fine enough to not be detected, the usage of the dust is rare.
Symptoms
Spellsters who ingest even a small amount of dust feel the immediate effects as they are torn from the inside out in an endless cycle of magical healing attempting to repair the damage caused by infitialis, whilst the dust continues to negate the ability. This leads to a victim suffering an excruciatingly drawn-out death.
Treatment
In Stamekia, it holds a reputation for having a hundred percent fatality rate with no hope of treatment once it enters the body. This reputation seems to be well-earned as it has taken every single one of its targets. But the reality is that it's completely fatal only in spellsters with innate healing. Spellsters without access to such magic suffer horrendous pains in their gut as the infitialis works its way through their digestive system, but they are able to survive if left in the care of others without magic to let the metal dust expel itself through normal methods.
Other exceptions are Nulled Ones and those without magic, both of whom suffer no such side effects beyond a mildly upset stomach.
