Poisoned

is one of the Status Effects in For The King.

Description
A creature or character that is poisoned will have their stats severely diminished and take 3 damage per turn until they are either cured or have endured the poison. Each stack of poison will fall off after 3 rounds and poison can stack up to 3 times. Each stack increases both the damage and stat penalties (5% for each stack) of poisoning. Like being Cursed, being Poisoned is a status effect that persists after the end of combat.

Cures
Using the Healer service in town will cure all stacks of poison. Panax can be used to cure a poisoned character of one or more stacks of poison, depending on the character's pipe level. There are also other less common items that will cure all stacks of poison such as Firesilk and Precious Pearl.

Alternatively poison can also be removed by the Cure special attack.

Equipping a character with gear that provides immunity to being poisoned after they have been poisoned will not cure them of poison.
