So.
My hunter (one of the starting seven, just after embark) decided to take a nap right next to a rattlesnake he'd just shot through a lung.
Understandably, the snake was a wee bit miffed and proceeded to bite the everliving carp out of him, giving him a couple of shots of rattlesnake venom in the process.
The question is, how bad is this going to suck in the long run? Are we talking "temporary dizziness and nausea" level stuff or "mostly fine for X ticks, then blood explodes from every orifice" here?
Right now he just has a slightly wounded foot and head and has been vomiting every now and then.

Depends on the venom. Could Make him sick for a bit, could eat him from the inside out. Personally, I vote necrotizing rattler venom :p

[Yoink]

Hrm, he'll quite likely die, I think. After a long period of high fever, vomiting and pain. But bear in mind that this opinion is only based on that one time I tested venom in arena mode, playing as a giant rattler, so this might turn out differently! Watch him and report back to us.

[DungeonJerk]

They'll be eating dinner, when suddenly Urist Mcdumbshit will go into convulsion's, flop onto the table. And bassicly turn into liquid shit before their very eyes. And we all know, one dwarf will be eating pudding at the time :p

I bet you thought I was gonna say have a new snake burst out of his chest didn't you?

I want to see this syndrome modded in somehow.

I think we all do. On some level, we all do.

So it only effects the blood vessels then, with the whole pain/bruising/bleeding/blisters and necrosis, does this mean his veins will bruise bleed and eventually stopping funneling blood to the vital organs?

Also is there a page on the wiki I can find explanations on these syndromes and how to mod them in a way? Such as what does [SEV:xx] and [PROB:xx] mean

[Nihilist]

Vascular_only means it will only effect tissue with the [VASCULAR] tag, so pretty much everything on a living creature, discounting hair and such.
SEV is the severity, and PROB is the probability of occurance, the rest is here on the Syndrome page.

[Naryar]

Yes it is. It looks as bad as helmet snake venom, and we all know helmet snakes are terrifying.

[peskyninja]

If giant flying helmet snakes existed, they'd be much more terrifying.

[NedeN]

If giant flying helmet snakes existed, they'd be much more terrifying.

Might as well cut your own throat at that point, not even seeing one, just knowing of their existence

[Frogwarrior]

So apparently it will only affect the injured part, which is nice. Of course, since you said he had a wounded head...

[darkflagrance]

Helmet snakes aren't that bad. I threw a few at random humanoids in the arena, and the most that they succeeded in doing with poison alone was incapacitating them. I had to let myself get bitten over and over before I finally suffocated. I was quite let down, to say the least.

[Sus]

Yeah, I figure he's pretty much as good as dead, seeing as I don't even have any semblance of a hospital at this point and also seem to have embarked without a single doctor worth his salt.
