The SendingStone review

The Gargoyle, a monster in the Dungeons & Dragons universe, is considered to be a formidable foe with a challenge rating of 2. It possesses strong physical attributes such as a high AC of 15, a tough CON score of 16, and a sizeable HP pool of 52. However, it also has a low CHA and average DEX.

What truly sets the Gargoyle apart is its chaotic evil alignment and immunities to exhaustion, petrification, and poison. This makes it a deadly opponent for players who rely on these tactics in combat. Its abilities include Darkvision, Flight, Stone Camouflage, and a melee multi-attack with its claws and bite.

Overall, the Gargoyle presents a formidable challenge for D&D players and could easily lead to a memorable and exciting battle.
