If exposed to natural sunlight, a charnel hound takes a –4 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks. ### Body Integration (Su) When a charnel hound reduces a living humanoid creature of Large size or smaller to –1 or fewer hit points, that creature is kill, and its body is instantly absorbed into the form of the charnel hound, healing the charnel hound for 3 hit points per HD of the victim. The creature can make a DC 24 Fortitude to resist the effect. This is a death effect. The save DC is Charisma-based. ### Unholy Toughness (Ex) A charnel hound gains bonus hit points equal to its Charisma modifier × its Hit Dice.
