Poisons, they're truly the most deadly of weapons due to their stealthy nature, i'll be explaining the most used and deadliest of poisons. (Please don't kill anyone)

5 Aconite: Aconite is found in the plant 'monkshood' aka Wolfs-bane, aconite is used to cause the victim arrhythmic heart functions, which will lead to their suffocation.

How it's used: Just touching the monkshood flower is enough to poison you, so it's really easy to poison others. This poison is mostly used for aggressive attacks, like using it on a knife, bullets, darts, etc.

How long until death: Death usually occurs within two to six hours in fatal poisoning (20 to 40 ml of tincture may prove fatal, depending on the victim's size)

4 Ricin: Ah, ricin. I would share the recipe of making pure ricin, but i don't want to help kill anyone. When the recipe is done right, it produces a tasteless and odorless powder.

How it's used: It can be sprinkled into soup or placed in a drink or inhaled.

How long until death: It takes about 3-4 days to act and when it does the victim will be dead within a week. The death is slow and painful as this poison attacks the blood and internal organs starting with the digestive tract. The cure is rare and expensive and the poison is almost impossible to detect.

3 Arsenic trioxide: The so called "king of poisons" (That's debatable) This white powder starts off with causing vomiting, abdominal pains, diarrhea often accompanied by bleeding, and it ends with convulsions, cardiovascular problems, inflammation of the liver and kidneys and abnormalities in the coagulation of the blood.

How it's used: Like 99% of poisons, It's mostly used in food and drinks.

how long until death: 1-2 days of suffering.

2 Cyanide: Cyanide, the most popular poison ever, and for a good reason. Cyanide might not be the most convenient, but it sure is the easiest to get your hands on. With bitter almonds, 8 - 32 almonds will give you the lethal dosage of cyanide. Bitter almonds have about 6.2 mg of cyanide per almond inside them and the lethal dose of cyanide for adults is 50 mg - 200 mg. This is the best source of cyanide for criminals

how it's used: Can you guess? Yup, food'n drinks.

how long until death: Cyanide is a fast acting poison, it takes about 15 minutes to kill.

1 Dimethylmercury: This liquid poison with the confusing name is the true king of poisons, it may be hard to get your hands on, but that's for a good reason. You see, This one is a slow acting poison! But this is exactly what makes it all the more effective. Absorption of doses as low as 0.1 ml have proven fatal; however, symptoms of poisoning start showing after months of initial exposure, which is definitely too late for any kind of treatment, so if the poisoner doesn't interact with the victim after poisoning them, no one would even suspect them.

how it's used: Injecting 0.1 ml in the victim's coffee means death. it can also kill you if it touches your skin.

how long until death: an amazing 4 months to escape and lay low. This is the most dangerous poison in existence.

That took longer than i expected to write, hope you guys enjoyed the info (:
