False Balm

Description	This poison must be rubbed directly onto the skin on the target location, for at least 3 to 5 seconds. Thirty seconds thereafter, if the poison is not resisted (e.g. with the Resist Poison skill) or purged, that location is reduced to zero physical hits, breaking out into angry, suppurating sores. The poison must be purged or cured by an antidote before it can be healed. Note that this poison will also affect the hand of the person applying it, unless they are wearing a glove.
Skill	Poisoner
