ITL 15 - "how resistant to poisons the figure is"
Yet most poisons list no resistance roll. Should we assume that any poison that doesn't list this gives a 3/ST resistance roll?

As a general guideline, for example, the potency of alchemically-derived poisons is higher than those created without magical intervention in my system. Thus the Simple Poison would require a 3/ST resistance roll while Contact Poison would be 4/ST. More varied sources of poison with their own degree of deadliness is also desirable IMO (which we already have a Hexagram article for as I recall).

I'd absolutely keep ST the attribute used for poison resistance rolls.

To answer your question, allowing some throwaway clarificatory clause in the character generation section to override the actual rules describing how a poison works would be weird and silly. |

How should game masters interpret the absence of a listed resistance roll for certain poisons in ITL 15, and what guidelines can they use to determine the effects of these poisons on character...
