	In Warhammer Fantasy, Gargoyles are magically animated stone figures. Most, but not all, have Daemonic features such as bat-like wings and bestial features. They may be found guarding ancient ruins, seeming to be part of their decoration. They may also be created by means of certain forbidden rituals. Some may be commanded by their creators, while other follow simple instructions that were given to them long ago – usually to destroy all who trespass on their territory. Mention is also made in the backstory of Aranessa Saltspite of how the captain of the pirate ship she joined was eventually eaten by Sea ~~Gargoyles~~.

	As for other old-school adventures, gargoyles were one of those encounter-table wanderers in [[Drow Trilogy\|D1]] (like the [[ghouls]]) whose lair isn't detailed in the setpieces but (unlike the ghouls) we're not told which hex they're from. Just where they're not from.

	A stronger version called a marlgoyle appeared in [[S4: The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth]] and then in 1e's Monster Manual II (where it is ~~mispelled~~ margoyle). (~~And in~~ [[GDQ1-7: Queen of the Spiders]]' encounter tables, if you're using those, which you shouldn't.) Their name may or may not be a pun based off [[wikipedia:Marl\|a type of sedimentary rock]].
