I want to run with this concept but we need to define some things. But what about those which have found their way to hallowed grounds, that have been created with higher intelligences, have lived long enough to gain some insight, or been thrown into some plane bathed in the light of a good god? It explains the handful of characteristics that make them what they are while also giving them a part in a much larger universe.
More than that, these things are meant to be mockeries of elemental air, hence the wings. These are shards of his form and embodiments of his evil. This has all been codified into the D&D mythos as something an evil Elemental Prince, Ogremoch, accidentally creates. Gargoyles have always been pretty simple monsters in D&D: elemental, can virtually be a statue, wings. I have gone over them a couple times now in the old Libris Monstrum, but let’s focus on the 5th Edition version. Okay, before we get into things let’s quickly talk about gargoyles. Let’s get this kind of gargoyle floating around our fantasy worlds too!
These guys are a staple of Gothic architecture, but their intention has often been seen as protective, warding building from spirits. This time I want to consider something that has always bothered me about D&D: gargoyles. We are back with another entry into the new Libris Monstrum.
