It also offers a few less aggressive spells, such as a single [[Summonings]] option and the ability to remedy poison in your own system.

Obsolete: This article refers to an aspect of the game which has been removed. It is retained for historical reference only.

For the current poison-themed school, see Alchemy.

The Poison Magic school concerns itself primarily with the poisoning of monsters, allowing skilled practitioners to deal massive amounts of damage to most natural monsters.

Although Poison Magic is very effective in many of the earlier portions of the game, you will inevitably come across a wide variety of monsters that are almost completely immune to its powers. Combined with the lack of particularly high-level poison spells, practitioners are advised to eventually branch out into some other school of magic.
