DESCRIPTION

This spell conjures forth a deadly poison that can be applied to edged melee weapons or ammunition. The poison automatically deals 1d4 points of Constitution damage per round; one successful Fortitude save negates the effect. A melee weapon magically retains sufficient poison for up to five successful strikes. At the end of the spell’s duration, any venom that remains on the weapon or projectiles loses its supernatural potency.

As the venom is magically delivered, you do not run the usual 5% risk of poisoning yourself.
