Effect	You’ve studied venoms long enough to warp their nature. With preparation and a quiet space (such as a lab, tent, or secluded corner), you may alter one or more doses of poison using Craft: Poison + Snake Rank vs. a difficulty set by complexity: Basic Modifications (Difficulty 2) Delay Onset: Poison remains latent in the target’s system for up to 8 hours. Change Delivery Method: Convert one delivery type (e.g., Ingested → Contact). Advanced Modifications (Difficulty 3–4) Enhance Potency: Increase Potency by +1 (stackable once). Extend Duration: Add +1 round to the poison duration. Mute Signatures: Poison is undetectable without magical means or a Craft: Poison check vs. your result. Compound Formulation (Difficulty 5) You may combine two different poisons into a single hybrid dose. The hybrid must be comprised of a damage type poison and a utility type poison. (e.g., Giant Wasp Poison and Blood Root Seeds) The hybrid is unstable and must be used within 24 hours or loses its properties. If the poison(s) used are created by Poison Blood you automatically start with 2 successes, allowing Basic Modifications even on a failed roll.
