Sleeping Bleeder is the name of a poison that originated in the pirate isles west of Sarda. When coating the points of arrows, the poison first acts by putting its victim to sleep. It then prevents the blood from clotting, so anyone attempting to remove the arrow from the wound causes the victim to bleed to death. The poison worked slow enough that few people ever suspected poison.
