Clockwork Golem
The clockwork golem is a 12-foot tall bipedal automaton
made of bronze, steel, and invar. Various interlocking gears,
sockets, springs, tubings, and wires, seemingly like humanoid
organs, make up the rest of its body. A symphony of clanging,
clicking, hissing, humming, rattling, and whirring sounds always
accompanies the clockwork golem wherever it goes.
Wondrous Constructs. Gnomish artificers of Gond
designed and crafted the first clockwork golems. They
used winding mainspring devices, steam-pressured
pistons, divine magic, and arcane magic from Mechanus
to power the clockwork golems. Rarely found outside
gnomish communities, clockwork golems are now
accessible to anyone who can afford to craft or purchase
them.
Array of Deadly Gadgets. In combat, the clockwork
golem has numerous weapons it can deploy. It can
batter foes foolish enough to be within reach of its
massive metal fists. For targets that are out of reach,
the clockwork golem can extend its arm like a spring,
grabbing and pulling them to itself. It can boost and
propel itself into the air through steam-powered rockets
underneath its feet. If faced with numerous foes, the
clockwork golem can utilize its shoulder-mounted
arcane cannon that can fire three types of energy
grenades and its arm-attached double-barrels that
can spray a cone of scalding steam. Finally, if its
enemies manage to destroy it, the clockwork
golem will explode, hitting everyone close to it
with searing hot shrapnel.

Clockwork Golem Arcane Cannon (Recharge 4-6). The golem fires a magical projectile
from its shoulder-mounted cannon at a point within 120 feet of it.
