Gargoyle (BB)
Creature 4 — beast, earth
ShadeFlankerLANDAERIALbeastearth
Gargoyles are monstrous hunters made entirely of stone. They look like decorative statues and use this as camouflage to hide in plain sight in cities during the day and descend upon unlucky pedestrians at night. Their most common form is that of a horned humanoid with batlike wings, but individual gargoyles vary greatly, with some appearing more or less humanoid and others resembling something else entirely. Gargoyles tend to be lone hunters, though sometimes they band into groups called wings.

Abilities
Clawed Feet — If the gargoyle is flying and a creature moves into an adjacent square below them, the gargoyle can use their reaction to make a claw Strike against that creature.
Statue (concentrate) — Until the next time they use an action, the gargoyle appears to be a statue. A creature must succeed at a DC 32 Perception check to figure out that the statue is really a creature.
WORKS WELL WITH
AnvilLAND / AERIALA frontline body that draws attention lets this ambusher hold its disguised position undisturbed until the moment it strikes.
SnareLAND / AERIALA controller that fixes a target beneath this creature's perch guarantees the reactive claw attack lands when that target tries to move past.
