Poison (status)

Poison, also called Poisoned, is a recurring status aliment in the Mana series.

Effect
Poison gradually depletes a target's hit points by a small amount per second, and may cause the victim to faint if not squelched before it can wear off. Upon being afflicted by poison, the target may have green or purple bubbles overhead. This status effect can usually fade by itself after a while or be removed immediately by using a Medical Herb or summoning healing magic.

Final Fantasy Adventure/Adventures of Mana
In Final Fantasy Adventure poison (rendered POIS on the screen) makes Sumo lose HP rapidly for a while. This can be restored by the Magic of Heal or Pure potion.
