[QUOTE="Upper_Krust, post: 8988330, member: 326"] Happy to help amigo! :) Actually I have just read over the Digestio ability. Strictly speaking you don't gain feats...but it probably makes sense that you would gain them. You gain higher ability scores. You gain higher hit dice totals. You gain divine/cosmic/trans/omnific abilities that you don't already possess. Technically it says you only gain abilities of a higher tier than you normally have. That is a bit harsh - but I probably put that there for balance reasons. If you can just gobble up a bunch of weaker immortals and end up with potentially hundreds of new powers its a bit unbalanced...although by this point everything is a bit unbalanced. I would say you gain their knowledge, yes. I would also say you gain their caster ability/skills. So if you eat a Level 40 Wizard you would gain the abilities of a Level 40 Wizard (unless you already had those), but you don't gain any more Hit Dice unless you only had less than 40 Hit Dice yourself.
