Impale is a non-humanoid natural weapon attack typically associated with horned creatures such as urghs, striped gaks and great stags etc. Attack messaging will often include a reference to the creature charging its prey. However, an impale attack is differentiated from its more benign charge attack cousin, by higher DFs, a different AvD set and the added ability to pierce the target with its horn or horn-like appendage.
