Clangjaw Scrap Golem

Tier 1 Skulk

A clattering titan of rust and rhythm that blocks the way until you match its beat or get crushed beneath it.

Motives & Tactics: In combat, it advances directly and relentlessly, using crushing, sweeping strikes and debris-laden shoves to control space and force opponents backward. It prioritizes the loudest or most erratic target, but can be pacified through rhythmic sound or synchronized motion, reflecting its resonance-based construction

Difficulty: 10 | Thresholds: 6/12 | HP: 4 | Stress: 4

ATK: 1 | Rusted Pipe Arm: Melee | 1d6+2 phy

Features

Cascading Clang - Passive: Whenever a creature marks HP from the Clangjaw’s standard melee attack, that creature must roll Instinct vs DC 11. Success: No additional effect. Failure: The reverberating clang disorients them and they drop to Close range as they stumble back from the shock.

Wrench-Arm Snare - Action: Mark 1 Stress to lash out with a whipping tangle of loose gears and pipe-tubing. Choose a target within Melee range. On a successful attack: Deal 2d4+1 physical damage, and the target becomes Entangled until they break free with a successful Strength roll (DC 12).

Resonant Feedback - Reaction: When the Scrap-Golem successfully hits a PC with any attack, the unstable resonance in its chest-core flares. The GM gains 1 Fear.
