What if the grapple check include both Str and Dex modifiers?Simplify the description even more: the unarmed strike and the light weapon could be subsumed in one thing:"As an attack action you can strike the grappled opponent with a light weapon (including natural weapons). You make an attack against their normal AC, with a -2 penelity to hit if you use a manufactured weapon." (The "crush" idea could be ignored, or put into a specific feat "Crushing grapple").I wouldn't allow the grappler to cast a spell, to be honest. This would result in 3 only options during a grapple:- attack- pin- dragOtherwise, casting a spell could be allowed, but I think that it requires at least that the spell has somatic/material/focus component...Grab A possible addition is a size bonus to the Grab attack, because otherwise the larger character is actually having a penalty from size in this touch attack. HarryI actually didn't get this because I don't know what "to harry" means... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />What happened to the option of a smaller character grabbing A PART of a bigger foe, like a leg or an arm or the neck?</blockquote>
