[QUOTE="Shade, post: 5077072, member: 287"] Getting back to the "giant bite" and swallow/curse... Improved Grab (Ex): To use this ability, a dire whiner must hit with its bite attack. It can then attempt to start a grapple as a free action without provoking an attack of opportunity. If it wins the grapple check, it establishes a hold and can attempt to swallow the foe the following round. Oversized Maw (Su?): A dire whiner's maw can extend to a size for greater than its head would suggest. This allows it to swallow a creature of up to its own size, and its bite attack deals damage as if it were a creature two(?) size categories larger. An obtestu can use its bite attack even while assuming another form. Swallow Whole (Ex): A dire whiner can try to swallow a grabbed opponent of a smaller size than itself by making a successful grapple check. Once inside, the opponent takes xdx+x points of crushing damage plus x points of acid damage per round from the demon's interior. A swallowed creature can cut its way out by using a light slashing or piercing weapon to deal x points of damage to the interior (AC x). Once the creature exits, muscular action closes the hole; another swallowed opponent must cut its own way out. A Large obtestu's interior can hold x Large, x Medium, x Small, x Tiny, or x Diminutive or smaller opponents. Should we retool the swallow whole a bit to account for extradimensional storage? Where would the curse fit in? [/QUOTE]
