-//A beach holiday? No thanks. I once got bitten on the unmentionables by a sea-viper while getting some sun and my useless manservant Hugo refused to suck out the venom for me. In the end I had to suck it out myself.//
+//Why wouldn't I trust a scorpion-man bartender? If anything, I'd think he'd be a natural.//
-Poisoners tend to be stereotyped as villainous (or at least cowardly) but there's no rule that says they have to be either of these things. Venomous animals are often natural Poisoners, and the class conceptually pairs very well with the Healer and Injector ones. Just don't lean on poison too hard if you fight a lot of robots.

-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Bio Blast:** As an action, you may inflict the Poisoned condition on any subject within throwing range (0-10 meters). \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Fuel Cost:** Roll a trigger die when inflicting the Poisoned condition this way. If the result is 1-3, then doing so costs 1 Supply or use of a Fuel Can item. You cannot use this ability if you have no Supply/Fuel Can uses remaining. |

If the result is 1-3, then doing so costs 1 Provisions. You cannot use this ability if you have no Provisions remaining. |
 ^ ^^^
-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Poisoned Blades:** You know how to enhance your weapons with venom. Whenever you make any weapon attack and the trigger die is 10+, you inflict the Poisoned condition to your target in addition to all of that attack's normal effects (damage, conditions, etc). |

Whenever you make any weapon attack and the trigger die is 10+, you inflict the Poisoned condition to your target in addition to all of that attack's normal effects (damage, conditions, etc). \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Monoelemental:** Your weapon attacks can only inflict a single elemental condition on a 10+ at a time. If you have levels in multiple elemental archetypes, you pick which condition your 10+ trigger die attacks inflict each time. |
 ^ ^^^
 ^Condition ^^Explanation ^
-|{{ra>brandy-bottle?32&align=left}} ^Poisoned |{{fa>minus-circle?18&align=left}} Gain +1 toxicity at the end of each round. Successfully throwing off the condition prevents toxicity gain for that round. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?18&align=left}} If toxicity ever equals 7+, Vitality becomes 0. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?18&align=left}} Toxicity reverts to 0 at end of current exploration turn. |
+|{{ra>brandy-bottle?32&align=left}} ^Poisoned |{{fa>minus-circle?18&align=left}} When rolling to remove condition at the end of the round, lose 1 Energy if result is 1-4 and lose nothing if result is 5-8. If no Energy remains, lose Flesh instead. Rolling to remove as an action during the round does not cause damage regardless of trigger die result. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?18&align=left}} Energy/Flesh lost via the Poisoned condition cannot be regained by any means until the end of the current exploration turn. |
-====== Locusta ======
+====== Contagion ======
 ^ ^^^
-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Delicious Death:** You can poison any food, drink or similar consumable that you can get your hands on as an action. If any creature consumes the tainted material, they die a short time afterwards (anywhere from the next round to a minute or so, depending on what's dramatically appropriate). You do not need to be present or even conscious/alive to assassinate creatures in this way. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Assassination Limits:** As with weapon assassinations, a target must be of your own level or lower in order to be instantly killed by eating your poisoned food. If they are higher level than you, they simply gain the Poisoned condition instead. Anything that is immune to the Poisoned condition is also immune to being assassinated via poison. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Fuel Cost:** Roll a trigger die when poisoning food. If the result is a 1-3, then doing so costs 1 Supply or use of a Fuel Can item. You cannot use this ability if you have no Supply/Fuel Can uses remaining. |
+^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Cover Your Mouth:** Your poisons are highly transmissible. Every time a target is damaged by a Poisoned condition that you inflicted on them, all adjacent targets also gain the Poisoned condition. These secondary targets are also considered to have been poisoned by you, meaning that they can go on to spread the condition to further targets. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Inoculation:** You and your allies are immune to being poisoned through the use of this ability (unless you don't want to be), even if adjacent to a poisoned subject when they are damaged. |
-|{{fa>caret-right?24}} ^{{fa>star?24|Alternative}} |{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Special For You:** Through clever silverware-switching, portion sizing, chemical engineering or some other trickery you can poison only targets you want to be poisoned through the use of Locusta (for example, you can poison only Lord Toastwanker and not his wife even if they eat off each others' plates, or poison all the goblins and not yourself even if they make you taste it in front of them first). \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Higher Cost:** Precision poisoning requires more material and preparation. Making use of this option always costs 1 Supply/Fuel Can use; you don't even need to roll the trigger die anymore. |
 ^ ^^^
-====== Overdose ======
+====== Euphoric ======
 ^ ^^^
-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Vileness Overwhelming:** Every time you would inflict the Poisoned condition to a target that already has it (and thus normally wouldn't actually do anything) you increase their toxicity level by 1 point. |
+^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Feels Good, Man:** Your poisons overload their target's systems in a pleasurable way, making them very hard to want to fight off despite their drawbacks. When you poison a target (either directly or indirectly through the use of the Contagion ability), the condition can only be removed by a recovery check roll of 11+ instead of the normal 9+. |
 ^ ^^^
-====== Paracelsus ======
+====== Locusta ======
 ^ ^^^
-^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Feast of Corruption:** Every time you gain a point of toxicity from the Poisoned condition, you regain 2 points of Energy. |
+^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Delicious Death:** You can poison any food, drink or similar consumable that you can get your hands on as an action.

If they are higher level than you, they simply gain the Poisoned condition instead. Anything that is immune to the Poisoned condition is also immune to being assassinated via poison. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Commissary Cost:** Roll a trigger die when poisoning food. If the result is a 1-3, then doing so costs 1 Provisions. You cannot use this ability if you have no Provisions remaining. |

-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Hexxus:** For every 2 points of toxicity you currently have from the Poisoned condition, you deal +1 damage with all weapon attacks. |
-^ ^^^
-^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Mithridates:** You die when you reach 12+ toxicity from the Poisoned condition instead of 7+ as normal. |
 ^ ^^^
-====== Sapper ======
+====== Paracelsus ======
 ^ ^^^
-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Life Ticks Away:** Every time a creature gains a point of toxicity from one of your poisons, they also lose 1 point of Energy. If they have no Energy remaining, they lose Flesh instead. \\ \\ {{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Me Special:** You are immune to this effect if you poison yourself somehow (either accidentally or intentionally in order to use the Paracelsus ability). |
+^{{ra>eye-shield?48|Protection}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Mithridates:** You can recover any Energy/Flesh lost from the Poisoned condition normally without having to wait until the next exploration turn, even if you haven't thrown the condition off yet. |
 ^ ^^^
+^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Hexxus:** You deal +2 damage with all weapon attacks while you have the Poisoned condition. \\ \\ {{ra>doubled?24&align=left}}**Poison Elemental:** If you also have the [[Adamant]]'s Mechanical ability, you have the ability to gain the Poisoned condition (and thus enjoy the bonus offense from the Paracelsus ability) but remain completely immune to all damage from being poisoned as normal. Despite Poisoned now being a wholly beneficial boon to you rather than a negative condition, you still must roll to recover from it normally at the end of each turn (but you can re-apply it to yourself if desired). |

 ====== Side Effects ======
 ^ ^^^
-^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Extra Horror:** When you inflict the Poisoned condition to a target, you may choose to inflict another condition on them as well. Roll an additional trigger die to find out which condition is inflicted: 1-3 Choking, 4-6 Dizzy, 7-9 Nauseous, 10-12 Numb. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Subsumed:** You can inflict an extra condition via Side Effects once per target per exploration turn. Repeatedly poisoning a single target during a single battle only carries an additional side effect the first time you do it. |
+^{{ra>fireball-sword?48|Offense}} ||{{fa>plus-circle?24&align=left}}**Extra Horror:** When you inflict the Poisoned condition to a target, you may choose to inflict a random standard condition on them as well. Roll on the below chart to find out which one. \\ \\ {{fa>minus-circle?24&align=left}}**Subsumed:** You can inflict an extra condition via Side Effects once per target per exploration turn. Repeatedly poisoning a single target during a single battle only carries an additional side effect the first time you do it. |
