basically, although this may be a bit ahead of the time setting DF is in, you could possibly extract toxin glands from animals with said toxins, such as platypus or snakes, or forgotten beasts.  there's a chance your worker could contract the syndrome while extracting it, further levels will make it less unlikely to be poisoned and extract more poison.  wearing special gloves and a mask over your mouth would help.  you could then coat weapons with said poison, or dump it onto someone or something.  you could even manufacture your own poisons with the right materials.

Most injected venoms don't do anything when touched or ingested.

Also, planned.

if you don't mind me asking, how do you know it's planned? i'd like to see logs to see how close I was to guessing

[CaptainLambcake]

So, any proof?

Extracting's already there, the rest'll be around in due time

It's more there're just no current framework to handle poisons and toxic material beyond the most primitive contact, injected, or edible syndrome, yet ( there're also inhaled syndrome, but it looks mostly modding-related ).

I don't remember exactly where, sadly. Of course, Toady would have to be a moron not to be planning it...
