Clockwork dragon

Description
They resembled finely crafted statues plated in the metals that corresponded to the varieties of metallic dragons, including brass, bronze, copper, silver, or faux gold.

Their size often varied, ranging from about the size of any humanoid to that of any actual adult dragon.

Abilities

Clockwork dragons fought in a similar manner to their organic inspirators. They could bite or claw opponents and use their enormous wings to knock others down with their mere presence.

They also possessed dragons' breath weapons, though theirs came in two varieties. Clockwork dragons could breathe lightning—in a manner similar to blue dragons―or "repulsion energy", which sent their enemies flying back upwards of.

While in their preferred lair, clockwork dragons could create an obfuscating cloud of fog or blasts of sound that resembled the clap of thunder.
