Note
This monster is balanced to fit in a rogue level game. I have taken the liberty of not using the standard D&D rules for determining various statistics for this monster. As a result, it may seem a bit stronger (or weaker) than some SRD monsters of the same CR and that is fine. I think it will pose an appropriate challenge for rogue-level characters of its CR.

Dire Rhinoceros
The dire rhinoceros is infamous for its bloodthristy aggression and willingness to charge and kill creatures it considers a rival or possible challenge.

Dire rhinoceros' are 10 to 16 feet long, 5 to 7 feet at the shoulder, and weigh around 15,000 lbs.

Strategies and Tactics
A dire rhinoceros runs in a straight line, hoping its thunderous hooves will knock down some enemies and allow a trample. Generally, it will prefer to trample enemies and run past if it can.

When cornered by groups, it will stomp on the ground and move over an enemy that is knocked prone to trample them and also make an escape. If one enemy is much more threatening than others, it will use its butt attack to fling the enemy away (and if the enemy is knocked prone, the rhino will trample them too).
