 '''Statues''' can be found all throughout the [[Dungeon]]. Most of them are harmless, but some contain dangerous traps or actively try to kill you. While each kind of statue behaves in a unique way, they are most easily divided into inanimate statues (which are treated like [[dungeon features]]) and animated statue monsters (which will attack you and can be "killed"). Whether animate or not, all statues are completely [[stationary]], and if a statue is capable of attacking you, the game will auto-exclude all tiles in their [[LOS]] to keep you from accidentally wandering into danger.
-All statues behave much like transparent walls, being a barrier to ranged attacks but not visibility; unlike transparent walls, they are ''not'' a barrier to [[reaching]] or [[smite]]-targeted attacks. Hostile statues do not regenerate [[HP]], so even if you are forced to retreat, you may come back and try again to destroy one after you've healed.
