I've been thinking about this as well -- maybe teleport a Goromorg statue around when the player is not looking at it? I know the party's facing is accessible by conding, so this should even be fairly easy.

That sounds an awful lot like the weeping angels from Dr. Who.

Before the destroy() function was added, I wanted to make moving statues by giving a monster a statue model, returning false on any of it's actions except movement, and toggling blockers on and off around it based on how close the player was and their facing direction. Well perhaps it's not possible to give a monster the statue model. But the whole destroy() command makes this doable with pure scripting. Darn AH making their tools easier to use!

I've tried doing this thing, and the result was creepy ^_^
I've done a video, I'll post it as soon as I can!
Was nothing too serious though, just to get an idea ;)

Damn, so I'm not the only one thinking about something like that! :)

An enemy that mimics or mirrors your moves would be great, too.
