Deformity, Unhinged Jaw [Deformity] The cheeks split open with a snake like bite readying itselfPrerequisites: Willing Deformity^BoVDBenefit: Your cheeks can now split open along with your jaw bone being split down the middle to open your mouth to give a larger bite attack raising the dice to a d6.

You are also allowed to swallow a target whole if they are at least 1 size category smaller than you. You can make a grapple check to try and swallow another creature whole. If successful, you will begin swallowing your target. It takes three rounds to swallow a normal target which means you must make additional grapple checks every turn, though your target will take an additional -2 per check each time after and your own check will be reduced.

Eaten creatures can attempt to make their escape by making their predator vomit them out or cutting them open, however the predator makes a fortitude save with a DC equal to 10 plus the number of hours left until the victim is digested plus one-fifth the victim's remaining health to see if they can contain their prey. They take 1d6 damage each turn they remain.

Creatures take d4 hour to determine how long digestion will take, adding +1 to the roll depending on their size (ex: Fine= 1d4. Medium =5d4). Your movement is hampered to 3/4s of what it is normally till you are done. You gained HP based on how much the creature originally had by the time digestion ends. You are unable to swallow another body till you are finished digesting. Special: . This feat counts as the Swallow Whole ability for prereqs. If you have Stomach Mouth you can swallow prey up to the same size category as you. If you have Digesting Saliva, Digestion is measured by 10 turns instead of hours.
