Many vatkeepers use necrogen etchings to judge the value of their aspirants. If the wounds rot and fester, the recipient is not worth further effort.
Rulings
As Anoint with Affliction resolves, if the creature's controller has three or more poison counters, the creature will be exiled no matter what its mana value is. If the controller doesn't, the creature will be exiled only if its mana value is 3 or less.
You may choose to target a creature that has mana value greater than 3 even if no player has three of more poison counters.
