06-07-05, 09:38 AM I can't find that spell in my 3.0 ed PHB. What kind of spell is it? Which book/edition is it from?

Right now, without knowing how the spell works, I guess you would avoid the secondary damage till the spell wears off, and then take the damage. Not sure though.

they can use the ability turns then incorporial which says you are immune to poison,

06-07-05, 10:18 AM I'd say it makes you immune to most or all of the normal methods of becoming poisoned, but if you're already poisoned, it doesn't help you, and you need to make the second check just as if you were corporeal.

06-07-05, 11:05 AM Does it make you incorporal or ethereal? There is a difference.

06-07-05, 11:20 AM Hrm....I have a character with the ability to be incorporeal. I suppose I should expect that if I were poisoned, the secondary effects would take effect as soon as I shifted back to corporeal, since the poison would still be in me. I would be kinda mad at the DM if he ruled it made me immune to the poison altogether.

06-07-05, 03:21 PM The (Incorporeal) subtype does not, in and of itself, provide any particular protection from poison. Most creatures with that subtype are undead or elementals (and those creature types do provide such protection.)

In short: the answer is no.
