Charge (Ex): A minotaur typically begins a battle by charging at an opponent, lowering its head to bring its mighty horns into play. In addition to the normal benefits and hazards of a charge, this allows the beast to make a single gore attack that deals 4d6+6 points of damage.

Natural Cunning (Ex); Although minotaurs are not especially intelligent, they possess innate cunning and logical ability that makes them immune to maze spells, prevents them from ever coming lost, and enables them to track enemies. Further, they are never caught flat-footed.

Skills: Minotaurs receive a +4 racial bonus to Search, Spot, and Listen checks.

Minotaurs prefer melee combat, where their great strength serves them well.
