Gargoyle

Gargoyles are fae creatures made of stone. At nighttime their stone bodies become motile and they protect the towns they live in. Before dawn, they perch on the tallest stone buildings, usually churches, and with daytime become rigid stone again, indistinguishable from statues except for their aura. Masons mimic their forms in the drainage carvings they make, though many helpful gargoyles do perch in practical positions to still aid people in their sleep. Gargoyles and their relatives can take many forms, being collectively called babewyn.
==Nature==
Gargoyles are regulated more by time of day than the light itself. Non-sapient gargoyles will turn to stone underground when it is day on the surface. They have been used by surface-conscious dwarves to tell time.

==History==
Gargoyles were the fae that arose when stones were imbued with spirits in the First Indwelling. Later imbuings were less sophisticated, yielding golems—merely non-living stones moved by a spirit.
