From Mistipedia
Poisons are substances that derange the physical or mental processes of creatures. Antidotes are substances that counter poisons by restoring to proper order processes so deranged. Poisons are closely related to drugs which are defined as substances that modify physical or mental processes. When these modifications are intended to cure or to treat disease drugs are medications. When these modifications are intended to cause harm drugs are poisons.
There are three means of making poison (Gazetteer 4, 132):
- Craft (poisonmaking) - any poison
- Profession (herbalist) - flora-based (fungi & plants) poison
- Craft (alchemy) - non-plant-based poison
