 At the end of each rapidity period (be it rounds, minutes, hours or longer), the poison inflicts an amount of damage as indicated by the associated die roll. If the highest value possible on the die is rolled (i.e. a 6 on a d6, an 8 on a d8, etc.), then after inflicting the damage indicated the poison runs its course and is neutralised.
