Digestion is a damage type dealt by some engulfing attacks. It causes delayed instadeath, and mostly affects players with high (bad) armor class. Digestion can be completely prevented by wearing a ring of slow digestion, which causes monsters trying to digest you to instead regurgitate you. The following monsters digest:

• Lurker above
• Purple worm
• Trapper
