There are few ways more dreaded by mortals then to die of poison. Many things in the realms, if introduced into a person's body, are fatal, attacking vital organs in a grotesque fashion. Some poisons are quick, while others take years to painfully claim their victims. Only users of magic with no remorse for their victims choose this path of magic to inflict upon their foes. Some knowledge of the workings of poison and magical poisons is needed to successfully cast this type of spell.
