A ring that provides protection from the effects of poisons and venom.

Buttercup: “And to think, all that time it was your cup that was poisoned.”
Man in Black: “They were both poisoned. I spent the last few years building up an immunity to iocane powder.”
- _The Princess Bride_. 1987

The ring of poison resistance grants poison resistance when worn.

Desirability

Poison is a threat from D:2, and one Lair branch is guaranteed to be poison-themed. Poison resistance is very useful in certain parts of the game, and rings of poison resistance are a conveniently swappable way to get it. Even in Zot, some form of poison resistance is nice to have against green draconians and golden dragons.
