One of this slim construct’s arms ends in a whirling clockwork pistol, and a crystalline hourglass fits snugly between its pectoral armor plates.
Clockwork gunslingers are efficient sharpshooters, eliminating foes before they can draw close enough to prove a threat. Their primary design is to serve as guards, either for a specific location, for a particular person, or patrolling bustling streets of a city, but their creators often use them for assistance on missions that involve extracting high-value targets from dangerous locations. The constructs’ standard operating procedure is to evaluate a situation and engage in combat only if their own safety or that of whatever they are guarding is threatened. Inside a clockwork gunslinger’s hardened chassis, a large cache of bullets and powder is automatically fed into its pistol. Custom clockwork gunslingers sometimes have specialty ammunition in place of bullets as well as other decorations, though this change carries with it a corresponding upcharge. A clockwork gunslinger stands 6 feet tall and weighs 400 pounds. Construction The creator of a clockwork gunslinger must start with a pistol worth 1,000 gp, a crystalline hourglass worth 500 gp, and created clockwork pieces worth 1,750 gp.
