Nope, didn't think about using it for grappling. The character in question - Spring Heeled Jack - was the one time I was tasked with playing nemesis to the rest of the group. He was not only a ridiculously strong archmage but - because of how the game developed - he originally had been a bouncing/stretching (and eventually shapeshifting) super. So he could grapple at range using his limbs, but the nasty trick was being able to shift and stretch his tongue into an impaling striker.
