When they use Clumsy Charge they lose their Dexterity to Armor Class, and if they hit, their target is automatically knocked prone. Unfortunately, the Beast Zombie also falls prone in an adjacent square.


Thrashing Stand

Beast Zombies are clumsy but powerful things. As a full round action, the zombie beast can stand up from prone, during which they thrash and flail mightily to gain their feet, throwing sharp hooves and claws and teeth in all directions. Any enemy creatures in their space or adjacent to their space is subject to a Thrash Attack (+10, 1d8+1/x2). The thrashing attacks occur before the beast stands from prone, and any creature successfully struck by the Thrashing Stand is denied any opportunity attack that would normally have been provoked by the beast standing up from prone.
