In addition to the normal benefits and hazards of a charge, this allows the beast to make a single gore attack with a +9 attack bonus that deals 4d6+4 points of damage.Natural Cunning (Ex): Although minotaurs are not especially intelligent, they possess innate cunning and logical ability. This gives them immunity to maze spells, prevents them from ever becoming lost, and enables them to track enemies. Further, they are never caught flat-footed.Skills: Minotaurs have a +4 racial bonus on Search, Spot, and Listen checks.Spells:  Caster Level 17th  (Save DC 13 +spell level)Level (Per Day) - Spells Known0 (6) - 9  Detect Magic, Detect Poison, Read Magic, Dancing Lights, Mage Hand, Prestidigitation, Caltrops SpC, X, X1 (7) - 5  Mage Armor, Magic Missile, True Strike, Expeditious Retreat, Ray of Exhaustion2 (7) - 5  Resist Energy, Touch of Idiocy, Mirror Image, Scorching Ray, Glitterdust or Web  (Heroics SpC, would be another good option, As would Wraithstrike)3 (7) - 4  Displacement, Vampiric Touch, Greater Magic Weapon, Ray of Dizziness SpC4 (6) - 4  Evard's Black Tentacles, Heart of Earth CM, Dimension Door, Orb of Acid5 (6) - 3  Cloudkill, Acid Sheath SpC, X  (Prying Eyes might be good for finding intruders in your lair/maze)6 (4) - 2  Greater Dispel Magic, Disintegrate</blockquote>
