[[File:Poison chalice detail.png|left]]
The '''Poison chalice''' is a green, sickly-looking beverage given out by the dwarf [[Stankers]], found at the [[Coal Trucks]].

The poison chalice features in the [[Seers' Village Tasks]], in which players complete an easy task by giving one to [[King Arthur]].

The chalice can be drunk by players. Its effects are random, but include:
* Temporarily boost [[Crafting]], [[Fletching]], or [[Thieving]] by 1 level.
* Temporarily boost combat ability ([[Attack]], [[Strength]], and [[Defence]]) by 4 or reduce it by 3.
* Heal or damage the player: healing players up to 490 [[lifepoints]] or damaging them from 30 to 600.

[[File:Poison chalice damage.png|left|thumb|A player receiving damage from drinking a poison chalice.]]
Damage seems to be based on a percentage of the player's lifepoints, at two levels: 5% damage and 60%. It also seems that player with a high amount of life points have lower chances of being damaged by drinking from the poison chalice.

This could be used similarly to [[nitroglycerin]]. It can be a potent item for those who use [[Dharok's set]] as it damages a lot (up to 600), but it is very risky as it may heal or lose too many life points. After an update the killing effect of this potion was removed, your health will not fall below 25.
