I think what you/she were envisioning was something like "The tiger leaps onto the first target, claws it/rakes it, and it goes down. She then uses it as a springboard to leap onto the next one." That's a cool manuever, but even then I'd rule that the second leap would have to wait till the next round. And, unless the second target is more than 10 feet away, it wouldn't be a true charge attack, it'd simply be a leap (give her a +1/+2 bonus to attack and let her make claw attacks, but that's it).  As far as grappling... yeah, I'd say that unless the target is dead, she wouldn't be able to disengage easily. Pointing to my above example - if she killed him, she could leap again off his body and make a new attack.  That's straight from the MM. I'm not sure what you mean here, so apologies if I'm getting it wrong, but... the Pounce ability says "When a creature with this special ability makes a charge, it can follow with a full attack - including rake attacks if the creature also has the rake ability." Charge allows you make a single attack, but pounce allows a full attack. I think it's fair to assume that it's applicable against one opponent only.Yeah - rake is part of the full attack. Basically, it comes down to "how many opponents can you grapple in a round?" Common sense would say "one", unless you're some kind of multi-tentacled horror.</blockquote>
