What appendage are you grappling with and can you change it?


Rules Questions


I'm trying to make a giant energy creature who tosses an enemy around like a rag-doll and then eats it (think dog with a chew toy) but I can't figure out the rules on what I have to do or if it is possible.

Here's the idea: Half-orc Synthesist Blood God Disciple.

I get large, a bite attack, grab, swallow whole, use my 11th level rage power to pick up body bludgeon, and a pair of arms if I need them.

Swallow whole says I have to begin my turn with a creature grappled with my bite attack using grab, so I initiate the grapple that way. Body bludgeon says I can use a pinned guy as a two-handed improvised weapon.

Questions:
- What size improvised weapon is my foe? If I'm bigger than him does he drop from a two-hander down to a one-hander?
- If he's "in my mouth" because I initiated with bite/grab can I body bludgeon with him right now or do I have to move him to my arms? What kind of action is that? Is it an action?
- After I body bludgeon with him is he still in my mouth to swallow him since I opened with bite/grab or did I move him to my arms and now have to move him back to my mouth?

(Other questions relevant to the character but not this exact conundrum)
- Is the eidolon constrict the same as the monster one? It reads a little different but I don't know if that's on purpose or not. Do you constrict with every grapple check like a monster or just on the initial grab?
- Can you use rage powers while under the effect of the spell rage?


Bump! Please help I have no idea what the answer is!
