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.
