				"Through the years in which the Sun Empire was ruled from Orazca, its priests crafted huge stone guardians to protect the empire's cities and temples. The incredible magic of the Immortal Sun gave a semblance of life to these artificial creatures, endowing them with the ability to move their stone bodies, a keen awareness of their surroundings, and a limited ability to think and reason in order to help them carry out their orders. These stone guardians were tasked with standing watch\u2014constantly alert, vigilant to any danger, never sleeping, and unswerving in their duty.",
				"Most stone guardians are inactive now. In ancient ruins lying far from the old capital, the magic that gave them life has faded over the centuries. Even within the golden city, many of them have become inert, and those who seek to explore Orazca or other ancient ruins must be on constant guard. Any carved figure or statue might well be a stone guardian whose magic has failed. But it might also be a guardian that is simply waiting for a threat before it activates and drives that threat away.",
				"Constructs such as {@creature animated armor|MM}, {@creature helmed horror|MM|helmed horrors}, {@creature shield guardian|MM|shield guardians}, and {@creature stone golem|MM|stone golems} can represent these guardians."
