Class FeaturesText
- Poison Use (Ex): Poisoners are trained in the use of poison and never risk accidentally poisoning themselves when applying poison to a blade.
- Imbued Weapon (Su): A Poisoned has learned that sometimes it is better to directly apply assaults to an enemy. He may choose to cast a standard action Vein of Poison necros that can target one or more creatures into a weapon. If he does, that weapon applies the effect of that necro to a struck creature on the first successful attack of each round. The weapon stays imbued for a number of hours equal to the Poisoner's class level.
- Disease Spreader (Su): Any disease created by a Poisoner, whether via abilities or items, infects all other living creatures who come into contact with an infected individual for the first 48 hours of the infection.
- Plague Beasts (Su): At 3rd, 6th, and 9th level, the poisoner gains a monstrous centipede, scorpion, or spider as a cohort. Advance it until its CR is equal to the poisoner's level -3. Advance the cohort each time the poisoner gains a level. If they die, he is able to find another in a week.
- Imbued Companion (Su): As per Imbued Weapon, except it targets the Poisoner's necromantic companion or cohort and triggers on their first successful attack of each round.
- Double Infection (Su): On the round after being struck by an Imbued attack, the struck creature must save or have the effect repeat. Reduce all numeric effects by 50%.
- Pierce Resistance (Su): Poisons and diseases created by the Poisoner work on creatures immune to those effects at 50% efficiency. They still gain saves as normal.
- Spread the Word (Su): Living creatures killed by an Imbued attack rise as Diseased, Fast (See LM p173) Zombies under the control of the Poisoner, up to a maximum of 2 hit dice per character level. Diseases created by these creatures triggers Disease Spreader.
- Vile Strikes (Su): Imbued Weapon and Imbued Companion now trigger on every successful strike.
