Blood Rage (Ex)

When a ceratosaurus takes damage in combat, on its next turn it can fly into a rage as a free action. It gains +2 Constitution and +2 Strength, but takes a –2 penalty to its AC. The rage lasts as long as the battle or 1 minute, whichever is shorter. It cannot end its rage voluntarily.

ECOLOGY

Although a ceratosaurus's horn is mainly for courtship displays, its jaws are extremely deadly. A ceratosaurus stands 10 feet high and can grow up to 18 feet long and 1,600 pounds.
