So, this guy's AC should be 16 (+1 size, +2 Dex, +3 natural)Attack should be "Bite +5" (+2 BAB, +2 Dex [Weapon Finesee], +1 size)I would lower this to 1d4 (just my thoughts though)I would list "spines" under Special Attacks. Check the Howler in the MM.Saves should be "Fort +4, Ref +5, Will +2"All dire animals (except the rat and shark) have Int 2 (just like most normal animals). So, I would give it Int 2.Skills and feats should be on two separate lines. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Also, animals receive 10-15 total skill points. Removing ability modifiers (and the size modifier to Hide), this guy has "Hide +4, Listen +5, Move Silently +4". Ah- nevermind. my math was off. Skill points are correct. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> so long as you included the size mod in the Hide skill total. Otherwise, its Hide skill is too high. Monsters are limited in skill ranks (like PCs) to HD + 3 skill ranks.CR 2I would give it "Advancement: 4-6 HD (Medium-size), 7-9 HD( Large)". Look at the Dire weasel and dire badger. Just my thoughts though.Spines (Ex): Creatures attacking a dire hedgehog unarmed or with natural weapons must succeed at a Reflex save (DC 13) or take 1d4 points of damage from its spines each time their attacks hit.</blockquote>
