The swallowed victim is considered to be in a clinch and to escape must make a clinch roll. The Lunar opposes this roll reflexively (it does not take up their action for the round) and gains a number of automatic successes equal to their Essence to the roll. Small weapons such as knives may explicitly be used in addition to brawling aids when attempting to escape and do their basic damage modifier in damage (soaked only with Stamina) to the Lunar even if the escape attempt fails. In this way a Lunar may find himself seriously wounded from a victim's attempted escape.

If the lunar activates any charm which allows them to digest inorganic materials such as Maw of the Furnace Rhino, the victim's equipment may also be damaged. It receives lethal damage equal to the Lunar's Stamina + Essence + 1 for each concurrent round of exposure.
