Spite Blood (Purchased): Generations of living underground and eating the local flora has caused Dark Elven blood to gain a slight toxicity. Drawing a small amount of blood and enhancing it with their talents as natural alchemists allows Dark Elves to produce a single dose of lethal toxin in the form of an alchemical gas globe. It takes 1 minute to draw enough blood to create a globe and does 1 Body point of damage to the Dark Elf. The globe can only be used by the Dark Elf who created it. When thrown, the Spite Blood globe will do 10 Normal Alchemical Poison damage. A Dark Elf who has purchased Spite Blood multiple times may stack together up to three doses to create a single gas globe of increasing damage. These doses must be stacked at the time of creation and cannot be combined once manufactured. A single dose will do 10 damage, two doses mixed together will do 25 damage and finally 3 doses combined will do 50 damage. Spite Blood gas globes are considered blood for the purposes of Wytchcraft, vampires, etc. When thrown, the call is “X Normal Alchemical Poison” and can be resisted with standard anti-toxin defenses / resistances. Each purchase of this ability allows the creation of 1 dose per day. 

so my question is does the X damage hit the body of the target as it says 'can be resisted with standard anti-toxin defenses / resistances' being that poisons arnt stopped by armour for any other and the normal being there so it can't be used on undead?
I believe it's like an acid packet that does normal damage instead of going straight to body.

Gas Poison: Alchemical gas globes are ranged attacks represented by orange packets that can be defended against with Resist Toxin or similar defenses. Thresholds of any type do not protect against alchemical attacks. The declaration for all thrown alchemy is “<type> Gas Poison”. (PG 89 5.5.1)

The damage can be resisted with a Resist Toxin call but cannot be defended against with "Thresholds of any type".

I personally don't know why it wouldn't hurt Undead. I think it would. World forum is best for that because I am not an official source on the rules.
For some reason I can't get my world form account to work.
Also it does not have the gas poison just alchemical
Because its alchemy, it might not work on undead. most are immune to it as per the undead state in the necromancy sphere.
I would ask why on the world forum it's called a gas globe but doesn't have the gas globe call. It's more like a contact alchemy right now. Once you're able to. Bug their forum people about getting on.
