However, don't retrain two guys at once unless the rest of the party can carry them till they can level up. This is of particular importance in the vicinity of Teralt, where monsters are surprisingly strong and resurrection costs a pretty penny.

The Druid's HP will decrease at a rate determined by his resistance to poison, and increase at a rate determined by his level. Whether his Druidity has more or less effect than the poison depends on the rates of both, but I expect a Druid of full strength would lose a single HP sporadically and then quickly pick it up again as he heals.

By the end of my game I never bothered curing poison, because even my Assassins were carrying healing items that more than cancelled out what little effect the poison had on them.
