Civilization and Culture
Culture and Cultural Heritage
Gargoyles are known for their patience, stability and protective nature. They spend most of their time studying, researching and practicing either in magic or fighting. When in other societies, they can easily provoke hostility due to their form, thus they avoid dwelling away from their kingdoms. Their life span can reach up to 500 years.
History
"The second race were the Gargoyles. The Sentinel used a big piece of rock and mixed it with fire, making them more stone than anything else. It gave them heavy wings in order to climb on high places and turn to stone, so that they can hide from the Gods and observe at the same time. It gave them claws and great strength to carry large stones and build fortifications. The fire inside them was enough to keep them alive for centuries, observing and protecting."
