The Clockwork defender is created with both madness of engineering and genius of magic. It exists only to defend a single item. It survives Epoch to Epoch thanks to its ability to reassemble itself so long as any single gear is left intact. A giant spider made of mix of metals and rare elements its body is covered by hard iron carapace and its legs are sharp as a dragons claw. Its small webs, made of fine wire are not used in combat only to alert it intruders. It will never leave what it was created to guard. And it never stops searching for it if it is stolen. Instinct: Protect what it was created to protect for eternity

• This clockwork spider is built to defend an item of great power. It is relentless in its duty.

A vaguely manlike collection of ashy and burned branches and vines that moves and twists to form expression. Forms cults to protect itself and the forest that it calls home.

• Control plants and vines to do its bidding
• Empower a cultist (Attack with +1, or give +2 armor in reaction)
• Sacrifice a cultist to protect itself

Only a few know this, but there never was an original troll. Something that fell from the heavens perhaps, an infection, a parasite, that grants great regenerative abilities and turns its hosts into what are commonly known as trolls. But without the host bodies they default to this state, if not quickly burned away with acid or fire, a mass of teeth and tendrils and pincers and spider-legs and other such things, weakened but ready to pounce upon an unfortunate, overcome them and create another troll. Now make sure to burn every single body, and don't decapitate them either - that just makes these things more likely to spring up. Instinct: To Claim A Host

• Convert a body (living or dead)
• Spray blinding ichor
• Undo the effects of an attack (unless caused by a weakness, your call)

• Show Murkhal the location of anyone with their venom in their veins
