==== Other ====
* During the quest Marek and Lothander, Lothander will give you an antidote. This is not to be confused with Marek's Potion of Antidote, which is used to cure the party of the slow poison that will kill them in ten days. This regular antidote can also be pickpocketed from Lothander or taken from his corpse, though doing so will result in the eventual death of the party, because the quest will then be unfinishable and the party will be unable to get Marek's half of the antidote.
* Hull will give you one if you ask him for one during your return to Candlekeep in Chapter 6.
