StoneMan (Monsters and Monsters 2 GBC)

Introduced in Dragon Quest III, it is a stone figure reminiscent of a marble sculpture that was brought to life.

Characteristics

Stony faced, golden-eyed statues that love to surprise adventurers by stomping furiously on the floor, causing crushing quakes that can deal damage to an entire party. They have the appearance of muscular bearded men wearing togas. Despite being endowed with life, Living statues rarely move and actually appear to struggle when they do so, their movements often jerky, sudden, and barely different from their idle pose. This apparent difficulty is even reflected in their speech as they tend to get caught up momentarily mid-sentence, often at an awkward point in the middle of a word.

Difficulty in movement does not hamper a Living statue's strength, however: their heavy bodies enable them to attack hard and stand up to a fair amount of punishment before they crumble.
