==Description==
Composed of rock, the [[:Category:Gargoyles|gargoyle]] is a statue come to life at the hand of an ambitious mage. Mostly irate at the world and grumbling to itself about anything from the state of the [[Illithi|Elven nation]] to the weather, the gargoyle does not look so much inclined to fight as it is to curl up in a corner and look frightening. Still, it knows its task as a protector of its creator's domain, and will do its best to keep invaders from treading on its turf. <br/>
