	Itching Powder
Form	Powder
Call	Poison Command Scratch
Onset	Instantaneous
Duration	30 seconds
Ingredients	1 beth root, 1 black mushroom powder, 3 powder
Cost	5 work units
Key words	Poisoner / Combat
Description	This recipe produces a small pouch of powder. To use it, the poisoner must mime throwing it at a target within 10ft/3m, calling Poison Command Scratch. For thirty seconds thereafter, if they have not resisted the poison (see the Resist Poison skill), the victim must scratch themselves uncontrollably, as though affected by the spell Command with the order to “scratch.” As with any Command spell, the effect ends if the victim is attacked, although ideally they should continue to roleplay squirming uncomfortably, etc.
