			{{RTOC}}==Syntax==
			*{{tt\|GRAB <target>}}
			: Attempts to grapple a creature or player. The target must be engaged at melee.
			*{{tt\|GRAB <scripted item>}}
			: Activates an item that specifically supports the command; the item's behavior and requirements vary.

			==Game Helpfile==
			<pre>
			SYNTAX: GRAB [target]
			Allows you to use the GRAB brawling manuever against the specified target.
			May also be usable on some items if they are scripted to support it.
			Related verbs - GRAPPLE
			</pre>

			==Notes==
			* Against a creature or player, GRAB uses the grapple maneuver. A successful attempt can establish a grapple, while an unsuccessful attempt still incurs roundtime.
			* The combat form can fail if the target is too large or dead, if either participant is already grappled with someone else, or if the target is not engaged at melee.
			* Scripted-item uses can impose their own requirements, costs, roundtime and failure conditions.
