Devour Your Enemies

Using this optional system, characters can be tagged as 'Voracious', similar to how characters can be tagged as Lactating in the Lactation system covered in Matron Lustre's Book of Secrets. Any Archetype or feature that grants the ability to swallow enemies whole granted by any previous book now tags the character as Voracious, and certain races and creatures in this book are always considered Voracious. Beyond that, whether or not a character is considered Voracious is up to the Game Master and their players.

Additional Optional System: Stretching the Stomach

In a campaign using these rules, consuming inordinately large meals all at once will become commonplace, and a system may be needed to allow characters to train their stomach capacity to increase it, similarly to how Lactating characters can increase their Milk Capacity. This optional system can be used by any character, even those not tagged as Voracious. A number of times per week equal to a character's Constitution modifier (minimum 1), whenever a character consumes the most food they possibly can, including a roll for Stuffing themselves, they can attempt to increase their stomach capacity by attempting a single Eating Action to eat even more.

This is a rare situation in which a character can voluntarily attempt to eat beyond their limit while Stuffed. When the character does so, they must make a Constitution Saving throw (DC 10 + their Proficiency Bonus), increasing their stomach capacity by an amount equal to their proficiency bonus on a success. Any Food consumed beyond this increased limit by the Eating Action made to attempt this causes Overstuffing damage as normal. If the character fails the Saving throw, they suffer a level of exhaustion, their stomach capacity is not increased, and they suffer Overstuffing damage as normal for the additional food they consumed.
