There's no design forum for his yet, so I thought I'd put it here. Saving the discussion on whether the new poison rules are effective or not for another time, I would like to see some rules on converting existing 3.5 poisons to the new Beta rules.
The new poisons are fine if you're using poisons straight out of the DMG, but what about converting monster poisons from the MM? I just rain into this converting an imp over to Beta, and struggled with converting the poison properly, in particular with things like level of the poison.
Anyhoo, this is what I came up with:
Injury, Fortitude DC 13, initial damage 1d4 Dex, secondary damage 2d4 Dex.
My conversion to Beta:
Level 3 or 4? poison, injury; Save Fortitude DC 13Frequency 1 round (7); Effect 1 Dex; Cure 1 save
What do you think?
