clAwz

The mere idea of clAwz is nothing short of anomalous second only to their horrid handwriting. They were first seen by the party  assisting the terrorist Veralt Torak during the events at the Topaz Anchor. They are comprised entirely of semi-sentient house cAtz and mechanical inventions. They are indistinguishable from normal cats and are impossible to identify if they are not equipped.
While incredibly incapable in almost all aspects of life to including the inability to speak, they compensate for being capable mechanics and engineers. They have constructed and modified most of their assets, many of which are advanced enough to support semi-sentience. They are impressively agile, though they lack in everything else if they are faced with direct combat. This weakness makes them easy to manipulate and convince if cornered. They appear to understand Lower Draconic which suggests that they originate from the Meridian, though exactly where and the span of their influence is entirely unknown. What is known is their fondness for code and encryption to hide important and pertinent information with many being completely unreadable unless you know the cipher or solution. Their insistence on concealing their movements implies that they are a secretive or underground society, perhaps hiding valuables or information that could potentially be leveraged. This is why the party was unaware of their existence until recently. There may be a possible connection to the late House Minorii Claws given the similarity in their names.
While initially hostile towards the party, some surviving clAwz members at Topaz Anchor appear to be receptive to diplomacy and peaceful solutions. This may be attributed to the desperate situation they are in, or they truly are warming up to the party; neither is confirmed.
