Guest Kolava Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 How would swallowing whole work? I'm trying to build it as a power, but then I got to thinking....couldn't anyone of the sufficient size attempt to swallow someone else? I'm sure if they did it often, it would be built like a power...but what about as a one time thing, how would you rule it? Feedback for either possibility is welcomed. If this is covered in some book somewhere, please don't give me a reference to it...because current situations prevent me from having anything but the main rulebook (and I don't even have that at the moment) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Liaden Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 I'm really sorry, Kolava. This topic is covered in a fair amount of detail in the HERO System Bestiary, but DoJ takes a dim view of people posting significant chunks of their copyrighted material on public discussion boards. If I were to build this as a Power, it would probably be an Entangle which Does Not Prevent the Use of Accessible Foci (-1), Stopping at least the Sight Sense Group, No Range, with damage to the Entangle harming the creature who swallowed the character (probably a -1/2 Lim). Sorry I can't be more help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCoy Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 I've got characters going up against giant frogs in a crowded park. I gave the frogs a one-two attack, grab with tongue, swallow (entangle with uncontrolled NND vs LS does BODY). Not very dangerous vs the supers, but provides a time element, civilians have to be rescued before they suffocate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
