Poison and Potions

Liberty's Edge

Could one perhaps put a poison in the same vial with a potion without ruining either of them? Would this require a special vial or...?

Currently trying to work out a way for beguiling gift work a little harder for my buck, and I was thinking of making potions of Inflict Light Wounds and mixing it with some nasty poisons would do the trick.

But I am at a loss for thing being able to work or not.


I'd say that would work just fine for ingested poisons. If you can put the poison into wine or food, why not a potion?

That is what I was thinking, but sadly all ingested poisons have a (Relatively) long onset time. I was talking more along the lines of injury poisons.

The onset issue can be resolved by packing poisons with potions of Accelerate Poison (Yes it can be made into a potion). I had hoped to be able to use other ones though so I could package more deadly potions with multiple doses of poisons in vials that were quite a bit larger (Along the lines of 4-5 ounces).

Of course this all relies on the target not making its save to take the thing but I am working on that separately.

This goes along with a devious urban street-rat themed witch. Works a day job as a store clerk and fell in with a bad crowd in his off-time. Picking up the Cauldron and Evil Eye Hexes, building him up to level 3 for now.
