Venom

The Venom skill is possessed by members of the serpent class, and allows them to secrete various poisons with which to bite their enemies. Once the serpent has bitten their foe, the venom begins to elicit a particular, often detrimental, effect upon that person.

Many of the commonly known afflictions can result from being bitten by a serpent in this manner. However, the effect of the bite depends on the victim's skill level of the miniskill called Antidotes.

Serpents with access to a milking room may choose to transfer their venoms to vials which may be placed for sale either in shops or via the market channel.
