 All acids can be used to make an acid bomb.  The acid must be kept in a pottery flask (if the person who carries it falls down, roll DEX check or it will break on him and do damage) and can be thrown up to 50' as a thrown weapon.  If it hits a target, it inflicts 2d4 points of acid damage, and 1d4 acid damage to anyone standing within 5' of the main target.  Additionally, each acid type has a potential damaging effect to target's gear.

-// It turns out that ACTUAL medieval poisons are kind of lame. I believe we should we add more FANTASY toxins for poisoners and herbalists. //
