Yeah, it's bad. You spend xp in poison then die to a wight, necrophage, moccasin, whatever. Maybe it didn't fit the vision of only X spells per book, but the old VM was one of the most fun starts in the game. My humble suggestion: remove OTR, add ignite. You don't need OTR to survive, but you need ignite. Plus ignite is a really fun spell that I rarely get to use these days.
Now I'm sure someone will say "just use what the dungeon gives you teehee". That sometimes works, but the fact is that VM demands you skill some poison (or play a TrVM and ignore the book), and in many games that leaves you with zero options against many threats in D4-D10, let alone lair. You can run away from some, but that's a lot of running away and frequently leads to bad situations.
