Clockwork Creations

Only the greatest tinkerers and clockwork priests can build gearforged bodies and coax fading souls into gearforged soul gems, but gearforged aren't the only clockwork creations. Many clockwork crafters build devices and automatons suited to more mundane tasks. Each clockwork creation comes with a control rod branded with the creator's maker's mark and bound to that specific creation. Though the original control rods were actual rods, the control rod for a clockwork creation can be any metal object. Many control rods exist in the shape of amulets, weapons, bracelets, other jewelry, or even in the metal symbols on shields. The creature holding or carrying the control rod can command the clockwork creation as if it was the original creator, but the control rod must be within 100 feet of the clockwork creation for the holder to command the creation.

Some clockwork creations come with certain modifications already installed. See the Clockwork Modifications section for details on these modifications.

Consult with your GM before choosing clockwork creations for your character. Clockwork creations might not exist at all, or might be more or less scarce (and, therefore, more or less expensive) in the campaign world.
