The Restoration, Lesser spell says that one of the uses to neutralize poison "If the creature is suffering from any poisons, choose one of them and neutralize it". Our party was fighting a Green Dragon last night and it used it's breath weapon on them multiple times which promted the question of using the Lesser Restoration to neutralize the poison damage. That's when I discovered that all instances of poison damage I could find were instantaneous HP damage. No lingering effects that could be removed by neutralizing the poison. (I didn't check EVERY monster in the Bestiary, but the 3 or 4 I found that had poison damage and the poison in the equipment section of the rules all do straight up instant HP damage). So my question is this: is that use of the spell there for something that is going to be added in later with more complex poison rules, or should the neutralize poison effect of the Lesser Restoration spell actually cure HP damage that was done by poison?2. Reloading times for crossbows. I can't seem to find anywhere in the equipment section or the DMG section on reloading times. Does it take an action to reload that prevents attacking, or not? Or can you substitute a move action to load? Or is it a free action? I didn't see it listed as an example under incidental tasks in the DM guide section so I felt the need to ask here to verify. I could easily see it being incedental, but unsure.3. Thanks in advance for the help!</blockquote>
