The Gargoyles are a "subrace" of the Sarkaz.
Overview[]
One of the most ancient Sarkaz subraces, the Gargoyles presumably have some traits of the eponymous stone monster in Earth. Described as "children of soil and stone", Gargoyles are proficient in earth/geokinetic Arts and claim to be able to "talk" with the soil. They also have a tradition of giving out soil to friends, and a stone statue for close partners and relatives.[1][2]
Today the Gargoyles are considered a rare sight, with many of them dispersed across Terra. At some point, the Gargoyles used to be part of the Royal Court,[3] and even though their remnants are scattered, the Royal Court is looking forward to inviting them to Londinium.[4]
Notable[]
- Mandragora's mentor: An unnamed Gargoyle who taught Mandragora geokinetic Arts while she was living in a graveyard. Mandragora's Tombkeeper Grotesques are modeled after the Gargoyles, likely made in her mentor's honor.[5]
Mudrock is heavily implied to be a Gargoyle from her interactions with Vigna and Warfarin in Phantom & Crimson Solitaire.[1]
Trivia[]
- In the JP server, the Gargoyle's name is instead changed to Anzulithic (Katakana: アンズーリシック), which is a portmanteau of Anzû, a griffin-like mythological creature in Mesopotamian legends, and lithic, meaning "stone/rock," befitting the appearance of actual Gargoyles.
