Poison really does not work in PFS.
It depends on whether or not you can poison someone with the same poison ot different multiple times in a round. I hit you three times. Now make three (Potentially four) fortitude saves.

You can, but it doesn't work as you probably think it does. Say you stab someone four times during a full attack with some sort of re-poisoning weapon (DC 13).

They fail their first save. They're poisoned. The save against the second hit is increased by 2 (DC 15).

They fail their second save. The duration of the poison increases by 50%, and the save against the third hit is increased by 2 (DC 17).

They make their third save. They remain poisoned.

They fail their fourth save. The duration of the poison increases by 50%, and the save against future hits increases by 2 (DC 19).

This is incorrect. The example in the book is a player getting bitten by a trio of medium spiders. If the player fails the first save from the first hit, and the other two spiders hit then the save goes up to DC 18 for the next 8 rounds. You don't make a save for each hit and dosage of the poison being injected in to you. However, one save (or two consecutive depending on the poison) will cure the whole thing.

With one hand I give. The Dark Archives faction card 7+ completed goals boon lets you requisition 100xlvl in gold pieces of alchemical or magical items, but not scrolls or wands. Poisons seem like a pretty good use for that.
