Escape a Predator's Stomach

1: use a water spell to keep the acids from entering the stomach and hope she will give in to her hunger before you.
2: use ice magic to freeze the inside of the stomach to kill the pred, then crawl out of the loosened throat.

Unless your weapon is a lightsaber.

yeah. well you'd have to make a detailed story/background if you want a jedi in felarya.

jedi: hey crisis, lemme show a really cool trick!
crisis: okay! what is it? ^^
jedi: *uses the force on a boulder and smacks her up side the head, and takes of using master force speed.*

I don't think I'd have to worry about that situation, because I'd probably sweat so much (from terror, and awkwardness if its a giantess), that I'd produce so much BO, it would drive the pred away! XD

If otherwise and I do get eaten, I'd just do the one thing that never fails:

Annoy the Pred with my Godzilla Fanboy talk so much, they'd purposefully vomit me out! XD

I'd zap a wand of digging, creating a hole through its stomach and reducing it to one hit point.

Nethack FTW!

Almost all adventurers carry at least a knife and few predators care to strip their prey... therefore, if knives were okay, more adventurers would be able to escape than actually do, which, given that to even consider going here, they would have to be confident in their skills and thus at least sufficiently not stupid, wouldn't make sense.

Actually, a Knife should work fine... for slashing out of the stomach lining. If you don't wind up stabbing yourself. And you can keep your grip on it long enough once your hand starts dissolving.

No, the problem is then somehow finding a way to cut through the rest of their musculature, veins, and so on, make it to skin, hack at it, and climb out, all without succumbing to your acid injuries, remaining coherent, not drowning in Naga Blood, etcetera.

You're more likely to just injure the Naga and force it to rest for a while than you are to escape with a simple knife. Lightsaber can cut through much more much faster, but said weapons are: 1) Rare. 2) Stupidly self-dangerous. What happens if there's a sudden muscle contraction? You lose your grip? You can't see and you turn it on backwards?

You can cut through a Predator's stomach as well, to my knowledge, even Giant Predators (Heck, there should be no reason to assume a regular sized predator couldn't be cut out of by a regular knife, as unlike a Giant Predator they aren't filled with a helluva lot of mass to squirm / hack through). The thing is, that many of the named Predators have enhanced / stronger stomachs, making them resistant somehow. Coincidentally, these are also the Giant Predators that tend not to strip their prey upon eating. It's still a practice for many Giant Preds to strip / disarm their prey - these are often the ones who are at risk to such actions.

How the hell can a pred with fingers a thich as your body strip you? Sure, they can remove any loose clothing and tear off any armour, but anything approaching skin-tight will stump them, unless they rip off your skin too. It's just not possible to get a grip on things like that.

I 'unno, how can the arm themselves with Giant-sized metal armor & weapons? Or be larger than a freight train but move through the forest quieter than a man-sized being?

my fav is still just a standard bottle of hydrogen-peroxide, it would work on a 80' human right well after all, but I wonder how well tossing a few boxes of baking soda ahead of you would do, probably not not enough, but you would at least have something of a pyredic victory.

Tossing baking soda ahead of you (IE: into the stomach) would douse them in acid, thus creating huge volumes of CO2. Unless the pred can't burp, all you've done is replaced any breathable air in the stomach with a cloud of oxygen-less gas, severely limiting the time your can survive in there, which limits how long you have to escape.

Actually it is. A hint? Use your tongue and teeth too.
