A living marble statue may be created in any shape, but is always carved from pure white stone with a faintly pearlescent sheen or network on its surface. Popular forms for marble statues include lions, gryphons and beast-headed humans.
Marble statues inflict 1-6 hit points of damage per successful attack. Every three rounds, a marble statue may create a mesmerism effect as its shimmering surface begins to ripple in a slow and hypnotic pattern; any creature looking at the statue must then save vs. spell or stand entranced for one round. Many marble statues are enchanted to capture opponents so spellbound -- if possible -- rather than attack.

Ooh. I do so love it when I have the perfect timing for evil ;3
Threw two of these against Oddysey this evening. In the middle of the fight, I forgot about their hypnotic shimmering power, darn it. Ah well, that'll still be a surprise next time. ;)
They were guarding a treasure room beneath the ruins of an elven villa. They worked really well with the theme, I think.
