Defeat

In which, after consulting the marvelous resource that is the UofT Graduate English ListServe, we conclude that there are no really good synonyms for "poisoner" in the English Language.

Update: I've got a tip (and it checks out at the source). "Venefica" is Latin for a female who poisons. It's a bit too obscure for my uses, however.
