Suggestion: Alternate Animations For Poison

Poison has a number of powers that use animations that can be jarring with character concepts. I propose the following suggestions to spruce it up a bit. Almost everything I am suggestion already exists so no new animation work needs to be done and only one power needs a model adjustment.

Suggestions:

Poison's Envenom power uses the "hocking spit" animation... I believe psionic dart uses a similar animation. But psionic dart also has an alternate animation that originate from the hand instead. Envenom could use that same animation.

Neurotoxic Breath is another power that originates from the mouth much like Fire Blast's Fire Breath. But Fire Breath also has an alternate animation that allows the cone to originate from the hand. Neurotoxic Breath should have the same option.

Paralytic Poison uses a similar animation to one of the early Nightwidow attacks that appears as if firing a dart from the wrist and while I can't find an alternate animation matching that power, it would probably not be too difficult to use one of the many quick and simple "hand blast" animations as an alternative as well.

Poison Trap simply needs an alternate animation that doesn't have the "techy" element... let it just be the color tinted sphere without the device looking part.

I would like to see some animations that would go along with a nurse outfit.

While my suggestion focused on adding alternate animations away from the "mount spit" type... having alternates for those powers that don't have the "spit" type animation to have them is equally valid! I'd love to see the options available both ways for each power.
