* We can have an assassin/apothecary NPC who mixes two poisons for a price depending on the poison strength created. The formula for calculating poison strength can be Base + (Added^2)/(Base+Added), where base is the stronger poison of the two. For mixing two poisons of equal strength, such as 200 strength with another 200 strength, it would be 200 + (200^2)/(400) = 300. The resulting poison is 1.5x as effective of each bottle. The fee should be more expensive as the
* Fast stabby weapons like daggers and arrows should have the highest chance of inflicting poison, and then swords and axes, and then clubs. To apply the poison, it would be similar to the scroll eraser. You put the poison in one hand, and the weapon in the other, and wait 5 seconds for the poison to apply. The poison can last for a set duration after being applied, or it could last for a set amount of attacks. Since poison bottles in the game have no use other than quests... the values can be modified to make them more balanced for implementing the use of poison. - Richgar
