Gargoyles
- Flying: All gargoyles can fly, moving at mounted speed without using a mount. Gargoyles cannot ride other creatures, so no need to worry about buying one. This is also
an advantage in Pandora's PvP Battles. While humans & elves have to run with no mount in these events, gargoyles can fly, making them much quicker.

- Mystic Insight: A basic 30 points of Mysticism skill without any training, and a bonus of 2 Mana Regeneration.
- Master Artisan: A 10% bonus to Imbuing ability.
Race-Specific Equipment
Not all equipment can be used by all races. In general, gargish equipment can only be used by gargoyles, and most everything else can only be used by humans and elves, though some things are usable by elves only. Here are the details:
Usable by All
Most non-gargish jewelry can be used by all races: bracelets, rings, necklaces, and earrings. Talismans and spellbooks can also be used by any race. In addition there are specific weapons that can be used by all races: shepherd's crooks, pickaxes, smith's hammers, sledgehammers, and wands.
Usable by Humans and Elves
This is the broadest category of items. Generally, clothing and equipment that is not labeled as being race-specific can be used by both humans and elves.
Usable by Elves Only
Some equipment, particularly armor and clothing, may be labeled "Elves Only".
Usable by Humans Only
Very few pieces of equipment are human-only.
Usable by Gargoyles Only
This type of equipment is always labeled "Gargoyles Only". This includes gargish jewelry, gargish armor, gargish weapons, gargish shields, and gargish robes. If a pieces of equipment does not say "Gargoyles Only" then it can almost certainly be used by humans and elves. If it does not say "Gargoyles Only" then it probably cannot be used by gargoyles, with some exceptions as listed above.
