Going by something I was planning for the campaign I managed to complete, I was wondering if there is a template that can be applied to monsters that would make them statue versions of themselves, brought to life by magic.
I am assuming that it would give the monster the Gargoyle's Freeze ability, and perhaps some damage resistance to ordinary weapons, but I'm not sure what else to add, and how this would affect a given monster's CR.
I'd appreciate any advice that could be given; I have this idea about a Medusa-wannabe spellcaster (not sure what kind would have that kind of power, I admit) with the ego of an artist that has a mausoleum full of these things.
