These strange beings are usually scaled and dragonlike, but with none of the dragon's sinewy grace. Instead, gargoyles have brute strength and armor-like scales, a squat, ugly body, huge bat-like wings, and vicious claws and teeth. Their heads are blocky, but vaguely like a dragon's, as is their squat body and thick, muscular legs that end in curved, poisoned talons. Their tails are like an imp's. Royals, like all Chaosian royals, are black with red markings.
