Breaking out of the claw, you pull out your musical instrament and begin to play. a soft glow surrounds you, making it hard for enemies to try to harm you. The crab that grabbed you is clearly unhappy about losing you. It manages to resist the spell, likely due to being so mad, and strikes out at you again with its claw, as you try to move away... WIS: CHECK: 18 CLAW: TO HIT: 17 CLAW: DAMAGE: 2 bludgeoning damage, and the target is grappled (escape DC 11).
<h2Crab4 Another crab scurries up. It passes by Io and Xerronios, as both seem clutched in crab claws already, and it sees unclaimed options still. Moving up to Kanlos, it cannot attack, but dashes to get into melee range.
Windlass, Kanlos, and Io
You three are up. You all have crabs in melee range, the one on Xerronios is within 5 feet of Windlass. Kanlos as one on him, and Io is in melee range of 3 of them, including that huge crab that currently has him grappled. Xerronios, if you didn't get hit by the crab this time, then you would be 30 feet away, and out of melee range, but I think a 17 hits, so you would be grappled and would not have been able to move.

Can Io use War Caster to Cast Vampiric Touch on the crab as AoO?

ooc: He is grappled. Does the crab that dashes by get within 5' of Xerronios? Being grappled does not restrict his Reaction so I'm wondering about an AoO?
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Kanlos would have dashed quickly back when the crab got into melee with him.
Skirmisher
Starting at 3rd level, you are difficult to pin down during a fight. You can move up to half your speed as a reaction when an enemy ends its turn within 5 feet of you. This movement doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks.
He then steadies his bow and fires into the nearest creature.

Windlas pulls out her weapons and slashes at the crab near her and Xerronios. Her first strike hits home, cutting intot he crab, but her second strike glances harmlessly off.
Kanlos
Having moved away as the crab came in close, Kanlos aims and sends an arrow at the crab. The arrow glances off of the crab's shell and off into the sand.
Io
The crab that moved past Io and Xerronios was not close enough to trigger an IO, so please post action. Sorry that I missed the question on if an opportunity attack was available.
Io draws his sword lunges at the big crab that's got him pinned. His sword is charged with Vampiric magic. Perhaps he can get some of the life force back from the Crab.
Io's blade seems to drink in the light, a black sheen covering the blade. He drives it at the huge crab, but it is deflected by the crab's thick shell.
Crab3
Tries to grab Zerronios with its claw...
CLAW: TO HIT: 17 CLAW: DAMAGE: 5 bludgeoning damage, and the target is grappled (escape DC 11). The crab has two claws, each of which can grapple only one target.
Huge Crab
The huge crab starts to carry Io off towards the nest.
Crab1
Crab1 tries to grab Windlass with its claw. It grabs her, getting a critical hit... CLAW: TO HIT: 23 CLAW: DAMAGE: 10
Xerronios
You are likely grappled by two different crabs right now...
(Sorry I missed that, yet again. The crab failed its wis save, so cannot attack, and its action is used up in the attempt. It is now Xerronious's turn.)
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Xerronios growls as the crab grabs him again. He roars his defiance at the things, struggling to break fee
Bonus action Daunting Roar: As a bonus action once per short rest, creatures of your choice within 10 ft. that can hear you must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw (DC13) or become frightened of you until the end of your next turn. He's going to roar at all the crabs within 10'.
Athletics Roll to break free--his first attempt was an 8 but I accidentally deleted the post instead of editing it. Using Luck to try again:
Athletics 20
Now using Oracle Insight (The gods give you flashes of insight that help you bring your efforts to fruition. When you make an ability check, you can roll a d10 and add the number rolled to the check. You can wait until after you roll the d20 before deciding to add the d10, but you must decide before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails. Once you use this trait, you can’t use it again until you finish a short or long rest.) 10
That's a 15 (9+6) so he breaks free I think. He will back away from the hopefully frightened crab, to J12.
Xerronios roars at the crabs, #1, #2, and #4 become frightened of him, but #3 too-angry at him for making it not be able to attack to be phased by the roar. (#3 saved.) Xerronios then breaks free of the crab holding him. The non-frightened crab clicks its claws as Xerronios moves away, but, again, is unable to attack thanks to Sanctuary. The other three don't try to attack, too scared to do so.
Crab4
Crab4, still frightened of Xerronios, moves to attack Windlass, but misses due to being so scared.
Windlass, Kanlos, and Io
Io is being carried away by the huge crab, while Kanlos has backed away and is at range. Windlass has crabs all around her though, looking to be in a pretty bad situation...
Map
Map is still broken on Discord, not sure what is going on, but I cannot modify the map at all. Right now Windlass has 3 crabs all around her, Io is further North, being carried by the huge crab, and Kanlos is further South.

ooc: Right, I forgot. So, instead...
Breaking free of the crab, Xerronios breaks out his Doss Lute. Quickly strumming a tune, he sings, "Attack me not, with your claws I will not be caught!" He then backs away from the crab, moving 30' away.
ooc: Breaking free, he casts Sanctuary on himself as bonus action and then backs away.

Windlass and IO?
Still waiting on an answer for this:
So did the crab that moved passed Io trigger AoO?
OOC: Also waiting to hear if Xerronios gets an AoO on the crab that goes past him.
