Gargoyles follow many similar traits of the Termagant, including a smaller size with a compact but lithe body encased in a light exoskeleton, but also have less physical prowess than most [[Tyranid]] organisms. Compared to a Termagant their lower legs have atrophied to little more than stumps because of their wings. They generally carry [[Fleshborer]]s and can even spit a skin-burning venom. Instinctively they go for their prey's eyes, blinding their foe in order to cause confusion. Through a quirk of their physical structure, they are capable of squeezing through gaps seemingly far too small for them, often getting into enemy buildings and defenses thought safe and secured.<sup>1</sup>
It is believed that Under the direction of the Hive Mind, Gargoyles cannot fly far on their leathery bat-like wings will even throw themselves into vents, exhausts and that they rely on hitching themselves to the flanks exposed gears, fouling machinery and belly of a [[Harridan]] which acts as weapons with their brood mother to be transported over massive distancesbodies.<sup>2</sup>
