Ammunition

Uncommon

Paralyzing Ammunition.

This slender projectile is tipped with a venomous compound refined from a Carrion Crawlers's venom.

When you hit a creature with a ranged weapon attack using this ammunition, the target only takes 1 piercing damage and 1 poison damage, and must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned until the end of its next turn. While poisoned in this way, the creature is also paralyzed.

On a successful save, the target is unaffected. A creature that succeeds on this saving throw is immune to the paralysis effect of this ammunition for the next 24 hours.

This ammunition has no effect on creatures immune to the poisoned or the paralyzed condition.

Cost: 50 gp
