Dungeon [Gargoyle Castle] (Patreon)

An area inside the castle where the lord is no longer present. However, the gargoyles, magical creatures placed to guard the castle, continue to follow orders even though their master is no longer there, and guard the castle. Is it because the lord likes the beautiful gargoyle statues?

 gargoyles cannot move without a soul, so they are basically stone statues. Because of this, this dungeon was relatively safe, but recently [Soul Fixation Traps] have started appearing in this area.

Gargoyles that have had the soul of a challenger fixate on them will inherit their skills, so if a skilled challenger becomes a gargoyle, it can be troublesome.

However, if you open the gargoyle's helmet, it will regain its senses. The gargoyle's helmet seems to be a kind of control device.
