Ancien Gardien Pierreux

Old miners tell of a 'stone watch' left by a vanished sect to seal away what they feared. Tales call it the 'Dustwarden' or 'Garde-Pierre' and warn miners to leave offerings of oil and light if they pass its chamber.

Stony Resolve. The Guardian has advantage on saving throws against being poisoned and against effects that would charm or frighten it.
Tremorsense Awareness. The Guardian is difficult to surprise. It has tremorsense and detects most creatures moving on the same surface within 30 feet, even in darkness.
Anchored in Stone. When the Guardian is targeted by a spell or magical effect that would move it or teleport it, the spell must succeed on a spellcasting ability check or fail. The Guardian is unaffected by telekinesis, telepathic control, or effects that would rearrange its body.
Crushing Slam. Melee Weapon Attack: to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 13 () bludgeoning damage. If the target is a creature of Large size or smaller, it must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
Throwing Stone. Ranged Weapon Attack: to hit, range 30/90 ft., one target. Hit: 11 () bludgeoning damage. A target hit that is within 20 feet of the Guardian is also covered in a fine dust that imposes disadvantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks for 1 minute. The target can clean the dust off after 1 minute of work.
Tremor Stomp. The Guardian stomps the ground. Each creature within 15 feet of it must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 14 () bludgeoning damage and be knocked prone. On a successful save the creature takes half damage and is not knocked prone. Once the Guardian uses Tremor Stomp, it cannot use it again until it completes a short or long rest.
Protective Strike. When a creature within 5 feet of the Guardian hits a creature other than the Guardian with an attack, the Guardian can use its reaction to make a Crushing Slam against the attacker.
