Toxic spells and poison immunity


Rules Questions

Applying the Toxic Spell metamagic feat (Dirty Tactics Toolbox) to a spell gives the spell the poison descriptor. If I target a creature immune to poison with said spell, is he immune to the entire spell, or just the poison effect?

For example, I cast toxic horrid wilting spell against a high level alchemist with poison immunity. Does he take any damage?

Liberty's Edge

What is the exact wording of the Toxic Spell metamagic feat?


Quote:
Creatures with immunity are immune to poisonous aspects of poison spells, but not necessarily all effects of the spell (for example, a spell that creates a pit full of liquid poison could still trap or drown a poison-immune creature).
