Editing Minotaur (section)

====3e====
3rd Edition featured two extremely different versions of playable minotaurs. The first version, appearing in the [[Monster Manual]], was quite a beast, with 6 hit dice and a +2 level adjustment, meaning that minotaur player characters had to start at ECL 9. The full statblock, as printed in the 3.5e Monster Manual, is as follows:

:: +8 Strength, +4 Constitution, –4 Intelligence, –2 Charisma.
:: Large size.
:: Space/Reach: 10 feet/10 feet.
:: A minotaur’s base land speed is 30 feet.
:: Darkvision out to 60 feet.
:: Racial Hit Dice: A minotaur begins with six levels of monstrous humanoid, which provide 6d8 Hit Dice, a base attack bonus of +6, and base saving throw bonuses of Fort +2, Ref +5, and Will +5.
:: Racial Skills: A minotaur’s monstrous humanoid levels give it skill points equal to 9 × (2 + Int modifier, minimum 1). Its class skills are Intimidate, Jump, Listen, Search, and Spot. Minotaurs have a +4 racial bonus on Search, Spot, and Listen checks.
:: Weapon Proficiency: A minotaur is proficient with the greataxe and all simple weapons.
:: +5 natural armor bonus.
:: Natural Weapons: Gore (1d8).
:: Special Attacks: Powerful charge.
:: Special Qualities): Natural cunning, scent.
:: Automatic Languages: Common, Giant. Bonus Languages: Orc, Goblin, Terran.
:: Favored Class: Barbarian.
:: Level adjustment +2.

A few months after the launch of 3.5e, the Dragonlance Campaign Setting was updated for Third Edition rules, and it featured a severely nerfed form of Minotaur that players could play at level one. Its full stat block is as follows:

:: Natural armor: +2
:: Natural attack: gore (1d6 + Str modifier)
