Portraits

Stone and obsidian gargoyles are second level creatures of Tower. They are recruited in Parapet.

"Stone and obsidian gargoyles are demon-form statues animated for use as troops. They attack with raking claws." ^{RoE manual}

Building the Sculptor's Wings increases gargoyles' growth by 4 per week.

Though Stone and Obsidian Gargoyles are considered as non-living, they are still affected by morale and mind spells.

Tactics and info

Their stats are considered to be pretty low for a level 2 unit, but they are usually used as cannon fodder to protect the gremlins in the early game anyway.

Heroes with a specialty

• Piquedram the Alchemist has gargoyles as a specialty, which increases the attack and defense skills of any stone or obsidian gargoyles for each level attained after 2nd level, and gives them a speed bonus of 1.
