This would give 26 Str, Huge size for a +8 grapple bonus and reach, good natural AC, Improved Grab, Swallow Whole, and the nasty nasty Heat ability that does 8d6 fire damage to anything that touches or is grappled by the creature. Anything Big and Strong would be good for this too, Giants, Ettins, Athachs, etc.. There are a lot of good grappling based spells in the Spell Compendium as well if you have the chance to look through that. One gives you tentacles to use for grappling and boosts your grapple check. Another gives you the Balor ability to deal fire damage to creatures you are grappling.

First cast one charge of touch spell on self then get in to grapple and deliver touch attack. While grappling cast more touch spells with sudden still/still spell meta magic feats and deliver them to good effect. If possible buff yourself with spells like Enlarge person, Bull's strength and such before going to melee... It also helps to weaken the foe with spells like Ray of enfeeblement/exhaustion and Reduce person.

Nom 02-20-06, 08:03 PM	I am playing a grapeling monk/wizard.There was a spell in Zork: Grand Inquisitor that turned purple things invisible; if you could find a similar spell in D&D you might find it really useful. Unless you're a red or green variety.
