'''[[Stone Sleep]]''' is the natural and biological process that causes [[gargoyle]]s and [[Gargoyle Beast|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 [[clan]]s around [[Earth|the world]]. Stone sleep, however, was exploited by [[human]]ity and an advantage quickly became a liability for gargoyles as many clans were destroyed with ease, as in the [[Wyvern Massacre]].
