A terribly venomous potion.

Quaffing a potion of strong poison poisons you for 3 to 15 (more) levels (with a strong probability for 9). Poison levels over 5 are very nasty, and this potion can put you anywhere from yellow poison status to pink and even to red (where it can do 100+ damage before fully running its course). This potion is so toxic that it can even partially ignore poison resistance, affecting you as though you'd just quaffed a potion of poison.

"That liquid tasted extremely nasty..."

History

Prior to 0.13, this potion did nothing to characters with poison resistance.

Prior to 0.12, this potion could be thrown with Evaporate to create clouds of poison gas.
