Background
Created by Enver Gortash to serve him, Steel Watchers uphold the law in the city of Baldur's Gate.
About Steel Watchers
The operations of these huge steel juggernauts are powered by engines of churning hellfire.
Steel Watchers are formidable foes with large amounts of health and multiple Resistances.
With the exception of Steel Watcher Titan, Steel Watchers will gain the condition 
when they are close to 0
hit points. This is caused by the passive feature Failsafe Protocol. The explosion will deal 4d12+26
Fire damage in an area around the Watcher. This attack ignores 
resistance and 
immunity to Fire damage. Target will still take half damage on a successful 
Dexterity saving throw.
