[QUOTE="F5, post: 901987, member: 4607"] A player did that in a game I ran once. They were playing out a historical battle in a kind of dream-sequence/flashback. They were fighting a nigh-epic great wyrm black dragon with sorcerer levels, and losing (they were a mixed bag of heroes, circa 15th level). The bard, with a Legend Lore roll, remembered that the historical bard was swallowed whole by the dragon, and never seen again. So he taunted the gragon, got eaten, and with his dying breath, activated the rods. The colossal thing was pinned in midair by its' throat. It was icky. To veer slightly back on track, I had the rods make item saving throws against the DC of the dragon's acid, to see how long they pinned him for. I'd probably do something similar with the potions; make a save for each potion. If it fails, it's destroyed, to no effect. If it makes the save, the dragon could be effected by the potion. What the DC for the save would be, I dunno. Would this apply to any creature with the Swallow Whole ability? If a purple worm swallows an adventurer with a potion of levitation, do you wind up with a floating purple worm? Interesting thought... [/QUOTE]
