It was also decided to update several of the Feature pages (see GargWiki talk:Feature). This page was updated. Here is the text from the first iteration:

Stone Sleep

Stone Sleep is the natural and biological process that causes gargoyles and gargoyle beasts to turn to "stone" during the daytime. In this state, gargoyles dream, their injuries are healed, their bodies are purified of toxins and they awake refreshed, rejuvenated and energetic. In many ways, stone sleep is one of the biggest reasons gargoyles were successful enough to form clans around the world. Stone sleep, however, was exploited by humanity and an advantage quickly became a liability for gargoyles as many clans were destroyed with ease, as in the Wyvern Massacre.

Stone sleep cannot usually be avoided. Being deep underground, gliding in the air or just outright fighting the process have all shown to be useless in avoiding the change. Only magical intervention has allowed gargoyles to remain awake during the daytime. (more...)

Magus

The Magus was a human wizard who was responsible for cursing the few remaining survivors of the Wyvern Massacre, locking them in their stone sleep until Castle Wyvern rose above the clouds. Trained by the Archmage in his youth, and in possession of the Grimorum Arcanorum, the Magus was a powerful user of magic. This great talent, however, did not prevent the tragedies of his life.

The Magus was never able to tell Princess Katharine, the ruler he loyally served, that he loved her. After cursing the remnants of the Wyvern Clan he also devoted his life to protecting the gargoyle eggs of the clan despite the sacrifices he would make to do so. Most of his life he spent on Avalon helping to raise "The Eggs" and watching Katharine and Tom grow closer. Without his magic he felt somewhat useless, but his training helped him to tap into the inherent magic of the island itself. This skill would allow him to play an important role in his final battle.
