Just thought of this the other day... and it might even be possible? I haven't poked around too much in poisons actually.

It struck me when I was sneaking around in a bandit nest and took one of the pesky little bastards out with my trusty bow.
His friend got alerted and ran towards my position. I quickly retreaded in to the shadows but alas, my presence was still found out about thanks to that corpse laying around. (Even though he didn't find ME in particular, he still knew that something fishy was going on).

What if we could prepare our arrows with a poison that simply made the target it hit invisible. I guess it would be kind of a problem if the target didn't die by the shot and you had to fight against an invisible enemy... But still.

Haven't really thought this through and I guess there's a ton of flaws to the idea like the one I listed up here. It could though, be a nice option when hiding a body.



Feel free to share your thoughts!

It's a good thought but...
The game defines "potions" (which take effect on you) and "poisons" which apply to weapons (and take effect on others).
And as you already know, Invisibility is not a poison per se - for it would have to be one or the other - and if it was, you could no longer turn yourself invisible.

Somewhere there is a Perk that turns anything you killed into an ash pile.
I had this perk (previously, with a different character) and can't remember specifics...
But probably this is the closest thing to that which you desire,

It's essentially pointless because even if an enemy see's a corpse, he'll go on alert for a minute or two before going "Probably just the wind" and goes back to his corner to scratch himself. So as long as you stay put and out of sight, you're fine.
And even more, if you do hit him with this...
If the enemy dies: ...Congrats, you've hidden the body...Hope you remembered where he was so you can loot him.
If the enemy survives: Unless you want to get into fisticuffs with an invisible man who might agro the rest of the enemies in the area, guess you better wait for that poison to wear off.

Don't poisons cancel out on dead bodies though? As soon as the enemy dies, they'd just reappear. It'd be a neat mod though to have a bow that could make anything invisible.
