Dragon Poison

Dragon Poison

Dark • Harmful

Dragon Poison - depending on the species from which it was extracted - can cause a gamut of horrific symptoms ranging from paralysis to writhing pain and caustic burns. If not treated in a timely fashion, the victim is likely to succumb to death. Even then, treatment is no guarantee of recovery. There are no practical or useful applications for this poison, and it is considered a dangerous black market item by the Ministry. As such, creation, possession and peddling of this item will be treated as a crime. Method I • Approach young dragon, or hatchling - the younger the better - wearing dragon hide gloves. Subdue the animal and force the mouth open, hooking the upper jaw over the edge of the flask. Only a few drops of venom can be harvested from any given animal by this method. It is slow, laborious, and dangerous to both the animal and handler. Method II • Subdue an adult dragon by whatever means necessary and collect venom in a way similar to Method I; however, a strong iron cauldron must be used for the collecting process. Again, this is a dangerous process to both the animal and handler, and this particular process requires help from one or more partners. Method III • The dirtiest and most despicable method, by far. Kill a dragon, cut through the hide with an iron knife and remove the venom glands of the animal. Squeeze the poison into a waiting flask.
