A pennaggolan’s true nature becomes apparent at night, when it went forth to feed. Enemies of the Empire, p. 272 They could hide their organs within dead human bodies, but they spent much of their time in their natural form waiting for victims. They attacked with amazing speed and strangled their victims to death with their entrails before devouring their blood. They were second only to a Bog Hag in their ability to infiltrate Rokugan because of their ability to live in dead bodies. Way of the Shadowlands, pp. 48-49 If a Pennaggolan's body was destroyed while its head was elsewhere, then its essence was severed, and it would weaken and die. Roleplaying in the Emerald Empire, p. 201
=== Vinegar jars ===
After drinking, their entrails were engorged with blood, and it took several days for them to squeeze back into their human shells. Soaking the entrails in vine­gar speeded the process up, and smarter Pennaggolan would maintain secret locations well-stocked with vinegar jars. 
=== Creating New Pennaggolan ===
When a pennaggolan chose to create more of their own kind, they drained the blood from a living victim, and then hid the body. Three days later, the corpse rose from the dead as a new pennaggolan, retaining the memories but animated by a malignant spirit from Jigoku. Enemies of the Empire, pp. 272-273
=== Jade Immunity ===
While in human form a Pennaggolan was immune to the effects of jade. The Book of Earth, p. 86
