Special Abilities
Blood Rage (Ex) When a hoglin takes damage in combat, it can fly into a rage as a free action on its next turn.
It gains a +2 bonus to Strength and Constitution, and it takes a –2 penalty to its AC. The rage lasts as long as the battle or 1 minute, whichever is less. It cannot end its rage voluntarily.
Sure-Footed Charge (Ex) Hoglins are accustomed to barrelling through the rugged terrain of the nether and are able to ignore difficult terrain while charging, running, or withdrawing. They can also charge through squares that contain allies.
