Poison for Beginners
 Want a way to hurt people with plants that isn’t whacking someone with an oaken quarterstaff? Want a subtle and engaging playstyle that rewards research and effort? Poison for Beginners is the book for you—with 26 pages containing 20 truly unique and odd poisons, system agnostic rules for foraging, refining, and purchasing poison (along with a couple Powered by the Apocalypse moves), and lovely black and white illustrations, it's a must-read for anyone that's interested in plants that can defend themselves. It also includes examples of play for ease of use, and suggestions for use in a D20 system, such as D&D 5E.
