The Gargoyle only has stony skin; it's interior is fleshy. As my posts mentioned, they are beasts with rocky skin, but a powerful lunge will split their hide. Pommels and the crossguard can also be used to bash with. If you YouTube search "Half-swording" there's a video showing this technique, but it's when you use the pommel as a mace, and the cross-guard as a war hammer.

Edit: (didn't notice your second post) No, the Gargoyles are a rather secretive feature, as they spend most of their time hibernating and appearing as statues.

One of the few practical uses for Kylo Ren's lightsaber. Beneath the gold, the Bitter Steel.

I did not think about the Holy Grail having demonic powers, that's actually an interesting idea. (inb4indianajonesandthelastcrusade)

Have you seen the Fate/Zero or Fate/Staynight anime's?
It turns out the holy grail is not a benevolent wish granting device so much as a genocidal demon essentially asking the user "who in the world do you want to die so the world can be as you envisioned?". Needless to say, King Authur does not take this well when they find out.

No, I have not seen that anime West, but it's a rather interesting idea. I don't really watch TV or movies since high school. Though The Last Crusade, when there's the Holy Grails, and one makes the guy transform into a skeleton, well, that used to creep me out as a kid like crazy!

Heads up Azi, I've got a Glenn post coming in. If you want to add anything, feel free.

Also, can I tell you; giving the TM permission to affect the things in their own thread, I kinda feel like a big jerk in a way. Like I'm overstepping my boundaries or summthin'. But it allows for interesting narrative, so I'll get over it.

Well, I want my RPs to do something different; I think it's important to give regular users some power in their environment, to give them temporary freedom every now and then. This is to break monotony; it'd be pretty boring if I was constantly telling people what to do, which is why, gradually, open-ended RPing will soon unfold, allowing users to forge their own quest to the Archdemons how they see fit.

OK Annie, if you feel the need to expand the sections, go for it.

Chasers, it seems Abdul did not describe how the target looks like, so presumably, he was unable to find out; I guess Glenn, as he said, is just gonna wing it! But ya, finish the job in any way you like! Currently, I don't have anything to add, so I'll wait until Glenn gets into the tower. I think you've set-up the scenery and characters quite well; I suspect that one of the acolytes is a spy, the one who stood nearby.

Actually, the acolyte that stood nearby was Glenn in disguise. I suppose it was a little vague, so I'll fix that.

But yeah, Abdul wasn't able to find out the target's appearance, so Glenn will probably just execute the one that looks most like a demon worshiper, followed by the most important looking one.
