Poisons come in the following four types: Contact: Contact poison can be smeared on an object and remains potent until it is Touched or washed off.

Ingested: A creature must swallow an entire dose of ingested poison to suffer its Effects.

You may decide that a partial dose has a reduced Effect, such as allowing advantage on the saving throw or dealing only half damage on a failed save.

Inhaled: These poisons are powders or gases that take Effect when inhaled.

Blowing the powder or releasing the gas subjects creatures in a 5-foot cube to its Effect.

Holding ones breath is ineffective against inhaled poisons, as they affect nasal membranes, tear ducts, and other parts of the body.

Injury: Injury poison can be applied to Weapons, Ammunition, trap Components, and other Objects that deal piercing or slashing damage and remains potent until delivered through a wound or washed off.

A creature that takes piercing or slashing damage from an object coated with the poison is exposed to its Effects.

Assassins Blood (Ingested): A creature subjected to this poison must make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw.

On a failed save, it takes 6 (1d12) poison damage and is Poisoned for 24 hours.

Burnt Othur Fumes (Inhaled): A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 10 (3d6) poison damage, and must repeat the saving throw at the start of each of its turns.

Crawler Mucus (Contact): This poison must be harvested from a dead or Incapacitated crawler.

A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be Poisoned for 1 minute.

The creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the Effect on itself on a success.

Drow Poison (Injury): This poison is typically made only by the drow, and only in a place far removed from sunlight.

A creature subjected to this poison must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be Poisoned for 1 hour.
