As most of you followed my conversations here, you know that i was looking for a natural venom for my new medusa-like char. In the meantime i broke it down to two different poisons of which i think are interesting and the GM has no chance to decline. One is atropine (5K, physical damage, nausea and disorientation, injection-vector, immediate damage) or cyanide (takes 1 round, 8K, injection, no additional stuff). What would you choose?
PS: of course i will try to get the gorgon-venom from running wild or the ekyelebene-venom if i can, but i need something in the backhand.^^ |
