[QUOTE="evilbob, post: 5316638, member: 9789"] [sblock=grabbing]While your interpretation seems completely reasonable to me, I think if you want to be super technical: the letter of the law is that the ooze is grabbing, and the rules of a grab say that moving either the grabber or the grabbee (?) out of reach ends the grab. The special rule of the ooze pertains to movement while grabbing; technically, it doesn't say that the grab is any more or less difficult to end (at least, the MM entry for the ooze says this - which can always be changed by the DM). (How's that for a rules lawyer answer? :)) Also, causing the ooze to not be able to take OAs would also end the grab according to the letter of the law. However, LadyLaw's interpretation is reasonable and if she wishes it so, I'd say Rule 0 applied. Either way, I'd say go ahead and make a call, LL, and that'll be the rule for this battle, and everyone will be aware.[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
