Bigger InsideSuA ketesthius's stomach is an extradimensional spacemuch larger on the inside than its physical size would allow. A ketesthius can swallow any Gargantuan or smaller creatureand its cavernous stomach is an entirely new locationits size varying wildly from ketesthius to ketesthius. Creatures swallowed by the ketesthius are not considered grapplednor do they take damage each roundand damage to the walls of the stomach do not harm the ketesthius or allow the creatures to escape. Creatures trapped inside can generally escape only via teleportation magic that crosses planes or if the ketesthius is defeated or nauseated from outside. As a result of its unusual anatomy and huge appetitea ketesthius often has other monsters living inside its stomachwhich in turn feed on things the ketesthius swallows. A ketesthius usually has from one to four monsters of CR 8–9 in its gullet. Sea creatures like dire sharksdire crocodilesgiant octopusor giant squid are most commonbut less frequently giants or other land–dwelling creatures live in its gut as well. Ketesthiuses are even known to swallow each otherthough only on rare occasions.

Ketesthiuses are large sea monsters with wolf like heads and foreclawseel–like bodiesand powerful fish tails. They are voracious eaters with great jaws that can gulp down prey that can be as large as themselves. Creatures a ketesthius swallows are not digested immediatelybecause ketesthiuses' vast stomachs and unique anatomy allow them to sustain living creatures inside their gullets indefinitely. Entire ecologies can form within a single ketesthius's extradimensional digestive tract. Though the stomach's ecosystem is capable of supporting lifeit's far from a welcome environmentno sunlight comes inthe air is thin and dankand most creatures trapped within become feral in short order. Larger creatures that end up inside a ketesthius have a difficult time surviving long termand must resort to quickly snapping up prey that their host later swallows.

Though it makes no attempt to hoard treasurewithin a ketesthius's vast gut lies all the treasure of the creatures—and even ships—that the ketesthius has swallowed. More than oncetales of lost treasure within have led foolish adventurers to risk being intentionally swallowed by a ketesthius.

An adult ketesthius typically measures over 50 feet long. Its weight varies based on the size of its extradimensional gulletbut usually ranges from 5–60 tons.
