Dreading that they were too powerful to be released into the world and fall into the wrong hands, he secreted them away. Whether they were released by a destruction-bent agent of chaos, or they somehow effected their own freedom, they are now a threat to any who cross their paths. \n'b'  Uncontrollable and Invisible . In the past, the engineer was able to control his machines, which were built to be invisible agents and protectors. But the creations outlived their creator. If the secret to controlling the creatures exists anywhere, it is within the heavily secured vaults the engineer left behind. \n'b'  Wanted by Gnomes . The existence of these wandering clockwork monsters creates a bad reputation for peaceful gnomish engineers. A few groups of gnomes specialize in tracking and destroying these clockwork creations. They claim to do it out of virtue, but rumors abound that they do it for rare parts or the possibility of tracking down the engineer\xe2\x80\x99s vault. \n'b'  Construct Nature . The clockwork mantis doesn\xe2\x80\x99t require air, food, drink or sleep.'
