Poison is an item used to kill players over a period of time. It can be ingested through manually drinking, food or drink, or applied with a Syringe. Players who are poisoned have to take an Antidote. without a antidote players will lose max health till they die.

How to Obtain[]

Poison can be found in containers like most items. It can also be crafted with 3 Dried Herbs.

Use[]

Drag the poison item onto the item you wish to poison. Shortly after being poisoned, a player will begin vomiting and losing max health

You can poison the following items:

  • Syringe
  • Cooked Meat
  • Blubber
  • Tea
  • Herbs
  • Bones
  • Laudanum
  • Raw Animal Meat
  • Raw Human Meat
  • antidote
  • stew

If you drop a poison on a stack of items, the whole stack gets it.

If you poison one meat and then add it to a stack, the topmost meat is poisoned. Theoretically, if you had separate meats, you could play "Russian Roullette" by poisoning one and then building the stack of meats.

Poisoning the raw or base ingredient means the finished product is poisoned (i.e. poisoning any raw meat used in a stew will cause all 12 instances of stew to be poisoned).
