[QUOTE="SiCK_Boy, post: 8245959, member: 7026447"] My wizard was swallowed on the first round of a fight with a Froghemoth. That made me realize how debilitating the "blinded" condition is; my character's new goal in life is to find a solution in case this ever happens again. The DM was lenient enough to rule that I could still target the monster itself from within, so that allowed me to banish it (which led to another round of questions about whether I would be sent to the demiplane along with the monster - basically, when a PC is swallowed and in a monster's gullet, does that PC becomes an object carried by the monster); in the end, the ruling was that if the banishment succeeded, I would be freed and safe (and it worked, barely, with some assistance from the paladin). I don't think I would have died (the rest of the party should have been able to kill it before I was digested by the internal acid's 3d6 dmg/round; I still had some 60 hp), and I guess I could have had a chance at being expelled with a solid damage spell from inside (although reaching 20 points of damage is not easy when the monster has resistance to fire and lighting while your primary attack spell is Lightning Bolt, but I think upcasting it would have given me a fair shot). Still, a bit of a traumatic session for me. To think all I did is try to grab a pink flower (with no particular use or plot relevance) from a pond that I assumed was only a couple feet deep... If people have good suggestions for a Lvl 8 abjuration wizard that ends up blinded and restrained inside a monster's gullet, I'm open to hearing them! [/QUOTE]
