[QUOTE="Clint_L, post: 8939420, member: 7035894"] Here's what happened when I insisted on the poison: [I]As the DM, I will assume that you choose to poison the hostile guardian despite the potential risks and consequences. You carefully offer the cocktail to the guardian, which eagerly accepts the drink. As it takes a sip of the cocktail, you notice its expression change, and it begins to convulse, letting out a guttural growl as it falls to the ground. The poison you added to the drink takes effect quickly, and the creature is incapacitated. However, your action does not go unnoticed, and the cavern suddenly becomes eerily quiet.
