Creature - Snake 1/2, 3G (4) Whenever Marsh Viper deals damage to an opponent, that player gets two poison counters. (A player with ten or more poison counters loses the game.)1 "All we had left were their black and bloated bodies." -Maeveen O'Donagh, Memoirs of a Soldier
Illus. Ron Spencer
A player does not get poison counters if all the damage done to them by the Viper is prevented. The poison is added only if damage gets through. [Aahz 1994/08/11]
