You have mastered the deadly arts of poison from the masters on Malkii. You can employ a wide array of lethal toxins with which you can quickly and efficiently destroy your targets.
This talent tree is not limited by class.
Malkite Techniques
Threats of the Galaxy, page 13.
Once per encounter, you can apply a toxin to any nonenergy slashing or piercing weapon as a standard action. If an attack roll with that weapon also exceeds the target’s Fortitude Defense. that target is poisoned. Each round on the creature’s turn, the poison makes an attack roll (1d20 + your heroic level) against the target’s Fortitude Defense. If the attack succeeds, the target takes damage equal to 1d6 + one-half your heroic level and moves −1 step along the condition track. A target moved to the end of the condition track by the poison is unconscious but continues to take damage as long as the poison continues to attack. The poison attacks each round until it misses or until the victim is cured with a Treat Injury check (DC 10 &343; your heroic Ievell).
Modify Poison
Threats of the Galaxy, page 13.
You can modify the delivery method of a poison (contact, ingested, inhaled, injury) to another delivery method by succeeding on a Knowledge [life sciences] check (DC equal to the poison’s Treat Injury DC). The poiso’s capabilities and specific effects are unchanged.
