As the title says.
Can I use the teleportation ability of my wizard, specialized in the teleportation school (APG), to teleport out of a grapple? It's a swift action so according to the rules it does NOT seem to provoke an attack of opportunity.
Yes, it's also a supernatural ability so it doesn't provoke. Also, anyone with the grappled condition cannot take any aoo unless they are 2 sizes bigger than the creature they are grappling.
Provided he has line of sight to where he is going, yes.
It's a supernatural ability and thus isn't interferred with by things like grapple.
There are a few exceptions though. My GM once ruled that I couldn't teleport out of an air elemental's cyclone, because I couldn't see through all the dust and debris. Also gotta watch for Tetori Monks. They can stop teleportation effects cold.
That was quick! It's almost like I should bring my laptop with me to sessions so questions like these could be resolved with haste :D
Thanks, people!

I'm fairly certain teleportation effects don't require line of sight or line of effect. If they did the max range on them would be quite a bit shorter.

Typically they don't, however the supernatural class ability being referred to explicitly states that it needs line of sight. In short, it is an exception to the rule.
