So, the monster works great within the program, but isn't complete when printed out for use elsewhere. I'd almost rather just have the slam attacks always show up, but always use the character's Charisma bonus as the damage bonus on the attack. Other than that, this ended up working perfectly.

I guess my thought here would be the same for a Barbarian or a character with Rage. I would simply print the statblock twice, once while raging and once while not-raging. So just print the statblock twice.
Otherwise your at extra coding special to support "paper" which no other ability or race in HL does.
Of course the bigger issue is why even put the monster in HL if you are not going to use HL during the game? Cause you could just print the statblock already from the Paizo PDF. So confused on why code and "script" the abilities to work if not going to use HL during the game?
