Sarin

Colorless, odourless gas. With a lethal dose of .5 mg (a pinprick-sized droplet), it is 26 times more deadly than cyanide gas. Because the vapour is heavier than air, it hovers close to the ground. Sarin degrades quickly in humid weather, but sarin's life expectancy increases as temperature gets higher, regardless of how humid it is.
