Swansong Poison (mythic)


Homebrew and House Rules


Swansong Poison: Type: injury{worst insult}, Save: Fort DC=(13 +0.5*(APL{Average Party Level}|APHD) +GM's scene modifier or CR/3), Onset:(alignment steps from CE)r{for soliloquy}, Efct: dramatic death else 1d6+1 Cha drain & 1d4+1 Con damage along with halving all forms of movement, Cure: 3 consecutive saves, Price: -{priceless}, Source: my evil brain.
Description: This poison causes obvious horrible poisoning symptoms of the victim's countenance and a staggering state reducing movement along with a more powerful voice adding +1CL to any cast spell with verbal components and the [sonic] descriptor. Swansong poison bypasses normal poison immunity but the immunity adds +3 circumstance bonus to the creature's save. Curative spells below Fourth spell level (such as Delay Poison:C2) have no effect otherwise the spell must overcome a Caster Level check of the poison DC in order to pause the poison effects for 1d4+1 rounds and add +3 circumstance bonus to the first save and have no other effect. The poison also increases the difficulty to return a victim to life through spellcasting requiring a Caster Level check of the DC in order for the spell to be effective, wish, miracle, and mythic spells do not require a caster level check but they must be of Fourth spell level or above.
Swansong poison is normally kept in mythic containers or in mythic poisonous creatures who generally only have 1d3+1 doses before the poison supply becomes non-mythic(requiring no caster level checks) and simply deadly{someone has to tell the story}. The Young Template adds +2 to the DC of Swansong poison as How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
