Special
Trample
A pentaceratops will usually attempt to trample smaller opponents. Two adjacent man-sized or up to three smaller opponents may be trampled simultaneously; it rolls a single attack roll which is compared to the Armor Class of each of the potential victims, and then rolls a separate damage roll for each one successfully hit.
Special
Combined Attack
The gore attack may only be used against a single man-sized or larger creature, but may be used in the same round as the trample if the creature being gored is larger than man sized. Also note that a charging bonus may be applied to the gore attack.
Special
Variable Armor Class
The armor class of the pentaceratops depends on whether the attacker is in front of the creature, behind, or beside it.

A ceratopsian dinosaur with five horns and a large bony frill with a distinctive U-shaped notch
A Pentaceratops is a ceratopsian dinosaur, a member of the family best known for the triceratops. While the triceratops has three horns, the pentaceratops has a single horn on its nose, two larger horns over the eyes, and a particularly large bony frill with a distinctive U-shaped notch at the top. Like all ceratopsians, the armor class of the pentaceratops depends on whether the attacker is in front of the creature, behind, or beside it.
They are aggressive toward interlopers, attacking anyone who might appear to be a threat. These creatures are about 20 feet long and weigh about 14,000 pounds (7 tons).

Cretaceous herbivore, resembling a triceratops with a longer neck-frill and two extra horns protruding from under its eyes
Cretaceous herbivore, resembling a triceratops with a longer neck-frill and two extra horns protruding from under its eyes.
Ceratopsians are quadrupedal beasts with horns and bony head armour. They fill the rhinoceros' ecological niche. Ceratopsians are bad-tempered and prone to charge, making them among the most dangerous of the dinosaur herbivorous species. They were extremely common during the late cretaceous period. The best known and most common of these creatures, triceratops, was probably about twice as heavy as an elephant. Ceratopsians have two AC scores: one for their armoured heads, the other for their bodies.
