The Venom skill involves the production of various venoms by glands. These glands are remnants of evolution and lay dormant in most people. To those with the skill though, they can be used to great effect. First, one must secrete a particular venom. There will be a short pause while your glands produce the chosen toxin. Once the venom has been secreted, it cannot be held in the bloodstream indefinitely. Each venom has a risk factor incorporated into it. The more powerful the venom, the greater the chance of it backfiring and affecting the producer. To get the venom out of the bloodstream, one must either bite another adventurer or purge the venom from their body.
It should be pointed out that denizens will be immune to most venoms that do things other than cause damage.
The Venom skill is available to members of the Serpent class, along with Subterfuge and Hypnosis.
