[QUOTE="LordEntrails, post: 7052243, member: 6804070"] I like two inspirations/thoughts on the gargoyle concept; 1) I like the cartoon mentioned. Used to watch it on occasion and like the concept 2) Why do gargoyles have to be evil? In real human history, they were not (that's why they are found on churches!) So, some might be evil, some might not be. I like that gargoyles may have a ecology all there own. Maybe they aren't crafted, maybe they aren't born. Maybe they are created when a powerful guardian is destroyed (humanoid or otherwise) and somehow it's soul is converted into a gargoyle (that maybe it can transfer statues, maybe it can't), but whatever the case, it is a guardian of some sort. (Of a place, a royal bloodline, a artifact, a ???) As to how do you address paranoid murder hobos who think every statue is a gargoyle or golem? Well, the same way you deal with them thinking every door and hallway is a trap. Use them sparingly. [/QUOTE]
