Poison

Poison is a toxic chemical that is harmful to organic lifeforms. The poison can come in different forms and phases, and it can have various effects on the victims, depending on its composition. This can range from paralysis to death. Poison can be either created by human chemistry, or secreted naturally from animals or plants for defenses.

Certain poisons can be cured, given the right antidote.
