[HTL] - Derived from an algae alkaloid, polophromalene is a mild
neurotoxin to most races, causing paralysis and illness. Manifested
symptoms in most races include a full body rash and major muscle spasms
leading to paralysis. It's most important trait is its effects over the
mutability of the Dralasite form.
A dralasite under the influence of Polophromalene must make a STA
check. If the roll is failed, the Dralasite enters a random series of
spasms, producing and eliminating limbs without any control over the
effect. The Dralasite is effectively incapacitated by this effect. If
the check is succeeded, minor involuntary spasms will still occur,
reducing the Dral's DEX and agility-oriented skills by 10%. If the check
is succeeded by over 50%, the dralasite still has the listed penalties
from a successful check, but can also form twice as many pseudopods than
normal under their normal amount of control.
Other races under the effects of Polophromalene treat it as a standard
poison on the chart below. If a character's STA is reduced by half, he
or she becomes paralyzed by muscle spasms for (d10/2)+1 hours.
