Poison

Main Article: Poisons

Poisons are Hazards that are harmful or fatal to creatures. They always attack the Fortitude Defense of a target, ignoring Equipment bonuses to Fortitude Defense, Damage Reduction, and Shield Rating. If a Poison moves a target down the Condition Track, it likely imposes a Persistent Condition as well, which cannot be removed until the Poison is cured or until it fails an attack roll against the target.
