Sanctaphrax:
I think Human Form could handle the segmentation.

But I dunno whether Item Of Power is appropriate. The chick is in your stomach, right? It might as well be a body part.

The problem is that by RAW people wouldn't be able to find and destroy the lower half thus trapping the vamp in monstrous form. This is an integral part of the myth.

If the chick was just a body part than how could someone else swallow it and gain it's power?

I'd do that with Aspects. Aspects can do anything.

Through the standard rules for buying a new Template, whatever they are.

Item of Power is balanced around the assumption that having your Powers in an item is somehow inconvenient. I dunno if that's really the case here.

Something like "Detached Lower Body"?

Oh yeah  :-[.

The few times it does become inconvenient it can probably be handled with Aspects.

Sounds good to me.

For what it's worth, you might want to look at the Limitation custom Power. I dunno if Item Limitation would actually work here, but I think there's at least a possibility.
