The orc shoots a poisoned arrow! The poisoned arrow hits you! The poison was deadly... You die...
Every player needs the intrinsic called poison resistance. This resistance protects against the harmful effects of poison, including instadeath. If you do not obtain this resistance, than you will suffer from the harmful effects of poison. For example, a dart trap might shoot out a deadly poisoned dart.
How to obtain poison resistance? The problem is, many corpses that offer poison resistance are themselves poisonous (a notable exception is the corpses of shriekers, which can usually be found early). There are, however, many safe ways of acquiring poison resistance. For example, rings and amulets both include one that protects you against poison. Green dragon scale mail or an alchemy smock also protect against poison.
Barbarians, healers and orcs have a natural poison resistance. Monks get a natural poison resistance when they reach experience level 3 and tourists at level 20. Poison resistance is also granted when you are crowned.
