The Rock Gargoyle is an enemy in the Dawn of Souls and many succeeding versions of the original Final Fantasy, bar the Android version or Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster. Its recolor and name reference the Rock Gargoyle enemy from Final Fantasy III.
Rock Gargoyles appear in groups and have high physical and magical defenses. The gil and EXP reward for fighting them is poor, so it is only recommended to hunt this enemy for bestiary completion. They are encountered between floors B31–B39 of the Whisperwind Cove, in the levels resembling Mount Gulg, the Cavern of Earth, the Cavern of Ice, and Marsh Cave.

Etymology[]
Gargoyles were initially ordinary stone statues built on rooftops to let rainwater above flow down to the ground through certain paths. The statues were usually carved as monsters and strange creatures, which later spawned the belief that gargoyles are the guardians of the buildings they live in.
