I like this idea. Changeling can ingest reagents by eating, but are unaffected by chems absorbed directly via proboscis? That makes no sense.
But might have to be toned down a little by making reagents become diluted or filtered by the absorption process. That way a changeling just needs to keep in mind that all those chemicals he's absorbing might eventually affect him.
Stasis and Regenerate could purge chems from the changeling's system really quickly to counteract this (maybe they already do?), or another ability could be added just for this purpose. Maybe even make it so that the changeling can just *pee and that will purge lots of the reagent from his body (but the pee can be scanned for weird stuff which would give him away).
