Gargon
- ️Wed Apr 22 2020
Gargons (also pluralized as gargon) are Stoneborn creatures found in Revendreth. Chiseled in the image of things that go bump in the night, these vicious quadrupeds prowl the cobblestone streets of Revendreth to maintain order, by fear or force.[1] Gargons are crafted from stone and animated with anima. The venthyr use them as guards, pets, hunting companions, and fellow tormenters of souls. In the rare battles Revendreth has fought, gargons have been used on the front line against ground forces.[2][3]
