Chest Burster

Poison

Rare

This insidious poison is riddled with tiny slaadi eggs, kept
preserved inside the noxious solution that serves as this
poison’s base. A creature that drinks a dose of this poison
must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw or be
infected with a disease – a miniscule slaad egg.

A humanoid host can carry only one slaad egg to term at a
time. Over three months, the egg moves to the chest cavity,
gestates, and forms a slaad tadpole. In the 24-hour period
before giving birth, the host starts to feel unwell, its speed is
halved, and it has disadvantage on attack rolls, ability checks,
and saving throws. At birth, the tadpole chews its way
through vital organs and out of the host's chest in 1 round,
killing the host in the process.

If the disease is cured before the tadpole's emergence, the
unborn slaad is disintegrated. This item contains enough
poison for 3 doses.
