Talk:Deformity, Unhinged Jaw (3.5e Feat)

Review

Soo, here's some things I noticed:

You mention an increase in bite damage, but if you have none do you gain it? Also, what about size? I suggest changing the sentence to say that you gain a bite attack (maybe a feral strike?) and the damage based on a Medium sized creature.

The swallo mechanics seems mlre complicated than usual: normally you just swallow if you succeed on the grapple.

The cut open + Fortitude save is complicated and probably unnecessary: usually the creature has a minimum damage threshold you need to inflict to escape.

The digestion part is complicated: the hampering in movement could be -5 or 10 feet, the HP gained are temporary, right?

Now I'll go to the other related article. --The bluez in the dungeon (talk) 23:37, 2 April 2023 (UTC)

I am happy that I got some input on this idea.

It did not cross my mind that I needed to clarify the bite but it make sense to give them one first and maybe as a bonus if they already have one, just make it got up a dice.

For the swallowing, I was having a hard time trying to come up with draw backs for it. it felt too easy to eat them even if it took 3 turns. But, I would like to see how others feel about it. If they think it is fine, I don't mind removing it.

The fortitude is the same reason why I added all that swallowing text, just to make it harder for the person trying to eat them. If people feel it is fine with out it, I don't mind removing it.

Yes, I meant for the HP to be temporary. Sorry again for the lack of clarification.

I was just so worried that this ability might be too strong. I am open to people editing this article. I mainly just wanted to get this idea out and into the open since I was thinking about it. Just some person cutting their cheeks open more to make a crazy bite like a snake.

Please don't feel scared to edit it Bluez
