Give gargoyles hefty natural AC, but very low HP
Good natural AC but low HP is a combination that does not occur on
any current player race, and I think might be an interesting point of
distinction for gargoyles. (Nearly all low hp races are EV-focused,
and both draconians and naga have very good hp). Plus the natural AC
should help make them feel more genuinely stone-like.
For the time-being I am erring on the side of 'probably too good' and
possibly either their AC or HP could use further reducing (but it is
worth pointing out that at spriggan HP levels, the spriggan's EV focus
actually results in lower average damage taken than gargoyle's AC would,
in addition to them being much better at fleeing harm)
