The Pygmalion

[ripvanwormer]

I based Master Graelwende from this story on the wizard from the Pit. Do we have any clue to how long the Pygmalion has been around?

I don't. I suggested that the Pygmalion could have been found in the Wizard's Pit purely because there's a letter D associated with it, which is admittedly thin evidence. But perhaps Graelwende made the Pygmalion.

In my campaign I have connected the creator of the Pygmalion to the Gargoyle Hills. Basically my idea is that after creating the Pygmalion, the wizard kept his ability to create living statues. The Pygmalion left her creator, but the wizard went into the Hills and kept making new statues. However, these statues were terrible in appearance and would attack anyone seeking out the wizard.

That's really interesting. So the Pygmalion has a horde of monstrous siblings who may desire to bring their lost sister into their fold. If the Gin of Salik (or someone else) manages to recover her, then, perhaps he'll have to deal with waves of gargoyle-like statues attacking him wherever he goes, seeking out their eldest and greatest sister in order to learn from her the forgotten secret of how to create more of their strange kind. Or perhaps she is the only female of their species and the gargoyles desire her as a mate.
