An ape with the Clockwork Construct template applied to it. Apes made from clockwork, they are stronger and hardier than normal apes, but less intelligent and charismatic. They are sometimes used as guards in fortresses and dungeons built in jungles and forests inhabited by natural apes, as they look similar enough at a distance, for only up close does the truth reveal itself. Constructed Nature. A clockwork ape doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep.
