Gargoyles

For some reason, on the way to work at least once or twice a week, I am suddenly reminded of the gargoyles from Heroes of Might and Magic V. I don't know what it is that I see or hear that reminds me of this, but it happens a lot. The gargoyles were just absolutely adorable. In previous Heroes games and in most games in general, gargoyles are these scary stone creatures that rip your face off. In Heroes V, they were these cute little bookends that hopped around (or flew for short distances) and hit you over the head with a stone tablet that they carried around. When they weren't doing anything (Heroes is turn-based, so that happened a lot), they'd just sit there looking innocent, hiding behind their stone tablet.
