Nobody wants to get swallowed alive by a giant shark, ever… except Bruce over there. He says that's where they keep all their “Type N” treasure, but my suspicion is that he is merely some kind of weird pervert.
Devourer is a class that is mostly reserved for huge, horrible things and not the adventurers that must face them, but as always is not entirely off-limits if everybody's okay with it. While it can be difficult to use multiple times, it has almost unsurpassed utility when it comes to quickly and efficiently dispatching a single smaller opponent.

Offense | plus-circleDown The Hatch: As an action, you can swallow an adjacent creature whole. plus-circleCrushing Action: At the beginning of each of your turns, any creatures you've got inside your belly automatically lose 1 point of Endurance from being smashed by powerful muscular action. If they have no Endurance remaining, they lose Vitality instead. plus-circleAirless: Every creature you've swallowed automatically gains the Choking condition every round at the beginning of your turn if they don't have it already. plus-circleAcid Bath: Every creature you've swallowed automatically gains the Dissolving condition every round at the beginning of your turn if they don't have it already. minus-circleSnuffed Out: Since your stomach is both wet and airless, swallowing a creature automatically removes the Burning condition from it (if it had it to begin with). minus-circleLimited Capacity: Your stomach can hold a single creature at a time of up to two sizes smaller than you are, or up to five creatures of up to three sizes smaller. For example, if you are a human (size 5) then your stomach can a single creature of size 3 or smaller, or up to five creatures of size 2 or smaller. You can't swallow a creature if it's too big to fit in your stomach, and you can't swallow anything if there's not enough room for it. You can spend a procedure vomiting up the contents of your stomach in order to make more room, or just wait 24 hours and everything will be flushed through. minus-circleStomach Blocked: Any creature you swallow has complete cover from any attacks or effects made against it, including your own. minus-circleEnemy Within: Creatures you swallow can attack you from the inside. If you die while they're still alive, they can cut themselves out with any successful attack (or be cut out by somebody on the outside). Despite the fact that it's dark inside you, attacks made against you from the inside suffer no failure chance from concealment. plus-circleInternal Swamp: On the plus side, your innards count as a watery environment and any weapons that don't work in water won't work against you from the inside, either. plus-circleRight Up In Their Faces: Any weapons that cannot normally be used against adjacent targets (such as those from the Lancer, Lasher or Dragonslayer classes) also cannot be used while swallowed, as you are by definition always inside of their minimum range. |
