to poison or not to poison

Aardvarkin ignores all your babblings...

"Gee Greenbolt... in a situation like this, you have to be DEstructive, not
CONstructive..."

Aardvarkin thinks back to the room with those flasks.

"This is taking a risk, but i think its worth it.

     B4, when i tested that flask back in the room filled with kitchen crap, i
noticed that it wasnt healing, poison, oil , or alcohol... it wasnt water, or
any other normal beverage.

     My guess is that if it WASNT poison (and surely it was not otherwise id
be dead right now) then it could be a cure FOR poison.

     I only guess this since there was no effect one i drank it... of course
I Wasnt Poisoned!  

     The first think we should do , is shove a flask down the priest's
throat... if that doesnt help, then well think of another way... maybe take
him back to town....

     Its worth the risk... seeing how most spiders are able to kill their
victims in only a few hours in order to feast, i dont think well be able to
get Malcom back to the town b4 in time.  

     Now that i got that outta the way... i REALLY want some spider venom
now... Wow! look what it did to a priest!  And they are the most resistant
class versus poison and death magic too!  Must be pretty powerful stuff..."

     Aardvarkin takes out the vial of whatever it is, and will attempt to put
its contents down Malcom b4 anyone stops him.  Of course, if somebody does, he
jsut says:

"Fine, only trying to help... just know that his life is hinging on a thread
of hair... you cant harm him more than he already is.... and if that vial
contains poison... i, a thief (the class most suseptable to the effects of
poison) would not be around here playing cleric for the cleric..."

     Aardvarkin quickly loses interest in the worrys for cleric (as they say
(thieves guild) "one worry brings the culprits to scurry") .  All he has mind
for is spider glands and cracking those chests.
