Journal Entry #58- Gargoyle

With the Pulsating Gate opened and safeguarded from the Cult of the Dragon, Pacatus has sent several of us on to the Gale Force Gate in hopes of thwarting our enemy’s advance upon that entryway. As we came within view of the gate, it became painfully obvious that the cult members were not having as easy of a time as they had hoped. Standing guard over the gate was Malebolge, a gargoyle, and two magical basilisk statues. Though able to take flight, Malebolge seemed to grow more powerful when in contact with the ground, as if he were drawing strength from the floor beneath him. When he would freeze, his armor was nigh impenetrable, and being a creature of living stone, his armor was already formidable. Even while in flight, his inhuman toughness seemed to cancel even the most accurate attacks.

I am glad not to be on the receiving end of the attacks from his claws, especially after seeing several of the Cult of the Dragon fall before the follow-up attack from his stone jaws. The very weight of his form carries such momentum that he crosses incredible distances as he charges into combat.

With the Cult of the Dragon’s forces concentrating on the powerful gargoyle, we may be able to catch them unaware as we approach from behind and prevent them from gaining safe passage to the palace courtyard. If we can wrest the 7th Shard of Law from the cultists, who knows what bounty we can secure by opening the gate?
