TK grab vs attacks

[Beowulfe]

Normally a grabbed character can attack the grabber with -3OCV and everyone else at 1/2 OCV. If the grabber is using TK to hold the character, would the grabber by at 1/2 OCV to attack the grabber as well? The thinking is normally grabbed characters are attached so it is easier to hit but with TK, they are ranged.

I'm not sure I understand the question, so I'm going to rephrase it to what I think you're asking. If I've gotten it wrong, please post a follow-up and I'll try again.

 

Q: If a character is Grabbed with Telekinesis, do the standard Grab penalties to his OCV discussed on 6E2 62 (both to attack the person Grabbing him, and to attack other persons) apply?

 

A: Yes. However, since the Grab is at Range, the GM may wish to apply the ½ OCV penalty for attacking other characters to attacking the Grabber as well, since he’s not right next to the Grabbed character the way he’d normally be.
