Poison is a substance that causes harm to the body, reflected by this spell inflicting the status ailment of the same name, that causes gradual reduction in HP.
The spell originates from the Final Fantasy series, debuting in Final Fantasy III as a level 2 Black Magic spell that causes non-elemental damage as well as sometimes inflicting poison. Most future variations of the spell, also part of Black Magic, work as they do in the Bravely series, attempting to inflict poison without a damaging effect.
Final Fantasy V introduced the Spellblade command and with it the Poison Spellblade, whose effect is effectively the same as the Sword Magic Poison in Bravely Default.
