Editing House Rules on Poisons

I didn’t like the poison rules in the Mridone Race template, but loved the idea… Here are poisons and their effects. Unless stated otherwise duration is how long the poison is in effect, The Difficulty to create is just that, but they first must have the needed chemicals at hand, this is to be used when characters are doing it on the run or at any time when work is done in haste. GM’s desecression as far as that goes. The poison skill belongs as a specialisation of herbalist under Knowledge.Revised Mridone or any other race with a special skill involving the use and creation of poison rules: The race can better find the necessary fauna for the creation of poison, and all difficulty to create roles are knocked down 2 levels, as well as they start knowing 3 poisons, 2 moderate, and 1 difficult.

Characters must learn how to make each of these, some races may have the knowledge of certain kinds, but all must be learned.

'''Key to symbols:'''

1 Must be administered through injection, such as syringe blowgun or any other device designed specifically for poison injections, and cannot be applied to the end of average weapons.<br />2 Salve which can be applied to weapons, active when penetrates the skin.<br />3 Need only be applied to the skin of victim, these are very dangerous to the user as well as the victim.<br />4 Need be ingested.<br />5 Poison active immediately<br />6 Roll STR v. 3D(The poisons potency.) If Potency is greater the poison is active immediately, if strength is greater, find the difference between the roles, (How much higher the str was then the 3D) the character is effected in that many rounds.<br />Type:&nbsp;Diff. to create&nbsp;Stamina to resist&nbsp;duration&nbsp;effects<br />'''Lyrdome '''<br />1,2,5&nbsp;Difficult&nbsp;15&nbsp;3:00&nbsp;2D damage, no possible STR Check to resist.<br />'''Kharamsool '''<br />4,5&nbsp;Very Difficult&nbsp;19&nbsp;24 hours*&nbsp;*Death in 24 hours if not treated with proper antidote.<br />Gorass Juice3,6 &nbsp;Moderate&nbsp;20&nbsp;6:00&nbsp;-1D from STR and DEX

'''Mikkith'''<br />1,5&nbsp;Very Difficult&nbsp;limbs: 17, if head or torso hit: 13&nbsp;24Hr&nbsp;Paralytic, paralyses whatever body part it hits. If at the head or torso it is less effective and is easier for the target to resist.<br />'''Aspic Venom'''<br />2,6&nbsp;Moderate&nbsp;16&nbsp;4:00&nbsp;Blinds target<br />'''Ulkith Poison'''<br />1,5&nbsp;Heroic&nbsp;19&nbsp;:30 *&nbsp;*Death in 30 seconds if not immediately treated with natural antidote, or direct bacta injection.<br />'''L'Norn'''<br />1,6&nbsp;Difficult&nbsp;15&nbsp;2:30&nbsp;Hallucinogenic, causes hallucinations in target, IE: seeing 80 troops where there may be 2… Thinking they are a baby…<br />'''Cant’iot<br />'''3,6&nbsp;Difficult&nbsp;15&nbsp;5:00&nbsp;Target has temporary amnesia, can’t remember a thing…<br />'''Hutari (Novocain for the soul…)'''<br />2,5&nbsp;Very Difficult&nbsp;limbs: 18, if head or torso hit: 13&nbsp;1 hour&nbsp;Target completely loses feeling in the struck appendage. Can still use it but suffers a -2D/3D to all DEX roles with that appendage, due to the fact that they can’t feel a thing. If hit in torso suffers -1D+2 to all DEX roles. Also can act to resist pain..<br />'''Somec'''<br />4,5&nbsp;Moderate&nbsp;17&nbsp;5D6<br />rounds. &nbsp;If fails in stamina check target falls to sleep in 1D6 rounds.<br />'''Xizor Special'''<br />4,6&nbsp;Difficult&nbsp;19&nbsp;1 hour&nbsp;Target is over-run with hormones and has to overcome a very difficult willpower role to overcome once active(role can be made ever other round).

It makes the blade very difficult to see for all but those who can see in the ultraviolet. Those which it does effect have -1D to all brawling/melee Perry roles, since they cannot see the attacking blade.<br />Toolian Wookie Serum (The heart of a wookie)<br />1,5&nbsp;difficult&nbsp;16&nbsp;6D6 rounds&nbsp;Effectively raises the aggression of the target, Everyone which the target comes in contact with is subject to its upgraded temper, target must resist a Difficult willpower check to overcome the urge to attack any and all creatures they come in contact with, if they fail the role they must attack until they either overcome the willpower role, or the target is unconscious, gone, or dead.<br />Gamor Number 55, 3&nbsp;moderate&nbsp;18&nbsp;3 Days&nbsp;This long-lasting perfume captures the fragrance that can only be found when in the presence of a Gamorian. In short you smell like a four day old banana peel. All around you are subject to the stench.&nbsp; Target has&nbsp; -1D in Persuasion, intimidation, seduction, bargain, but a +2D in Brawling and +1D to all brawling or melee Perry roles, due to the stench.

'''Perosa (SWG#9, page 31 and 32)'''The perosa tree has a myriad of uses. The tree's soft outer bark can be cooked and eaten (though it has very little nutritional value), or fashioned into soft armor (+1 pip bonus to Strength rolls made to resist physical damage). The sap of the tree acts as a strong adhesive, and is used to stabilize and seal [[Ewoks]] buildings on [[Endor]]. Objects bound with perosa sap require a Very Difficult Strength check to separate. Members of both the [[Kel Dor]] and [[Gand]] species show allergies to perosa, and any who come into contact with the sap must remove it with 1D minutes, or suffer 5D of poison damage.

'''Fgir (SWG#9, page 31 and 32)'''Fgir roots, being hollow, shoot poisonous needles if the air within the roots is compressed by footsteps. Needles can be projected within a 20 meter radius of the tree, and make an attack roll of 3D when fired. If struck, a character must succeed at a Moderate Strength check, or be paralyzed for 2D hours. These roots are sometime harvested by Ewoks and used a blowguns. The moisture in the roots, which is weaker than the poison on the needles, acts as an effective anaesthetic. Fgir root has no effect against [[Aqualish]], [[Mon Calamari]], [[Quarren]], and [[Priapulins]]. Fgir is found on Endor.
