Anyhow, I think we're all right about 120/30 for the Nay-Churr, aren't we?

Yep. Nay-churr is once again in balance. ;P

That's odd. 120 is four times as much as 30, so it looks like the Nay-Churr would be unbalanced.

Ahem.

So, that leaves us with something like:

Engulfing Maw (Ex): As a standard action, a nay-churr can stretch its vast maw to cover an area 120 feet in diameter which is adjacent to its Space. All creatures and objects within the affected area must make a DC X Reflex save to avoid being scooped into the creature's maw and swallowed. See Swallow Whole, below, for the consequences of being swallowed by a nay-churr. The save DC is Dexterity-based.

This is ok with me for the nay-churr, but the draeden's maw is still smaller than the nay-churr's, which just seems WRONG. Can we increase the draeden's maw to 150 ft?

I fancied doing that, but Shade seems reluctant.

150 ft. is fine. I just didn't want the draeden's to be a factor of its space (since it's not really getting any bigger, it was pointlessly complex).

 

[freyar]

We can just make it a flat 150 ft, not tied to space.

Done for draeden. Now where were we on this fella?

I don't think we've settled on the "reflex thrashing" it does when injured, did we?

 

[freyar]

Don't think so. We have this:

Trying to escape by hacking through the stomach from the inside can have disastrous consequences. If the inner wall of the stomach is damaged even slightly by an attack, the nay-churr will go immediately into a state of instinctive panic and convulsion – moving forward at a rate of 18 and thrashing violently from side to side as it does so. Any objects or creatures inside it are thrown around with such force that further attacking is impossible, and the victims suffer 1d10 points of damage per round from impacts with other objects or debris.

Hmm, so just say that the nay-churr thrashes for 1 full round when its gizzard is damaged, doing X points of bludgeoning damage to any critter inside? Maybe it requires a Ref save or some kind of check to act if you're inside while the nay-churr is thrashing?

And there's this "vomit" attack.

A nay-churr does voluntarily disgorge the contents of its stomach on occasion: whenever the creature happens to be inside the air envelope of some object that it isn’t capable of swallowing, such as a planet or a large ship (100 tons or more). The result is a rain of debris in the direction of the gravity plane of the planet or ship.

Wouldn't it's thrashing also potentially injure creatures outside the Nay-Churr? Maybe anything within its Reach? With a Ref save to avoid?
