concentration check is required if you are being grappled vs spell-level+cmb-of-attacker
unarmed attacks are considered ‘light’ for all intents and purposes
if grappled, you will only be able to attack with weapons classified as ‘light’ (help light-weapons)
grappled folks cannot take an attack of opportunity
being grappled gives -2 to attack bonus on melee attacks
being grappled gives -2 to melee damage
grappled affection gives -2 penalty to all CMD checks outside of grapple related checks
grappled affection gives -2 penalty to all CMB checks outside of grapple related checks
grappled affection gives -2 to dexterity bonus
you can’t stealth or hide while grappled
you take a -2 penalty to your dexterity bonus while grappled
without improved-grapple feat (feat itself incomplete), opponent of grapple attempt gets AOO, damage will be applied as penalty to CMB

trolls have been changed to be ‘half-trolls’, no difference at all except in name since full-blooded trolls are much more powerful (i’m thinking future epic race instead of advanced)

in the zones2 it now lists ‘blindbreak rest’, with ‘blindbreak’ being the keyword for teleporting
