The dart deals 1d4 points of damage plus an additional 1 point per caster level (to a maximum of +5). Furthermore, the dart injects a virulent poison into the target. This poison deasls 1d6 temporary Strength damage as its initial damage and another 1d6 points as secondary damage. The poison has a Fortitude save equal to the spell save DC of this spell.

The dart strikes unerringly even if the target is in melee or has anything less than total cover or concealment. Specific parts of a creature cannot be singled out. Inanimate objects cannot be damaged by this spell.
