Why do gargoyles clothes and personal property turn to stone with them?
During the time of Caesar Augustus, gargoyles would come to his court, and when they awoke at night their clothes would be torn to shreds. Augustus was a man of strong “family values,” and in AD 10, he had a powerful mage (the original Magus) cast a Spell of Humility on the race. As a result, anything they considered “theirs” would turn to stone with them if they were in physical contact with it at sunrise.
