Description

Guardian Gargoyles come in widely varied shapes and sizes, and are created by many different cultures and Garou tribes, so they are found all over the world, particularly near caern centers. Once the Guardian has been attuned, probably by the sept leader or Warder, then it will automatically perform its function. However, it will require certain rites (Rite of Contrition, Rite of Cleansing) performed over it regularly.

Whenever an intruder (what entails an intruder is determined by the person who has been attuned to it) approaches the object or area the Gargoyle guards, it comes to life. It will make a number of attacks equal to its Gnosis, and it may come in the form of a supersonic shriek, a blast of flame, freezing breath, or any number of other attacks, but as a rule of thumb, use its Gnosis for damage. The Gargoyles' aim is near to perfect, so someone who tries to dodge it will have to get 4 successes on a dodge roll.

These are often used to guard fetishes, and it seems the most strategically practical layout is to have a hallway that approaches the object, lined with these fetishes. Then, as the intruder approaches, he will be attacked after row after row of vengeful spirits. Bad Ragabash, go lay down in the corner... :)
