Add poisonous player weapon(s) #148

Poisoning creatures is already possible, using summon scrolls. With some luck, one can get a grass snake friend which poisons any creatures that attack you.

"dark angel is poisoned, losing 10 health points."

What do you think about introducing poison arrows and a poisoned sword?

If the magic system is still being improved, a spell that poisons enemies, or even a whole "poison magic" school might also be interesting.

I know that poison weapons were in the works at some point. There is a poison arrow item. Not sure exactly where it is at, but I think it has halted for the time being because of the work on replacing sprites & tilesets.

Poison weapons now work. There are poison arrow & venom whip items, but they are currently either disabled or not attainable as there are concerns over how they will affect game balance.
