Construct Nature.

The clockwork abomination doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep.

Explosive Infernal Power Source.

When a clockwork abomination is destroyed, its infernal battery explodes. Each creature within 10 feet of the abomination must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking 14 (4d6) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one. The explosion ignites flammable objects in the area that aren’t being worn or carried.

Immutable Form.

The clockwork abomination is immune to any spell or effect that would alter its form.

Magic Resistance.

The clockwork abomination has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects.

Unstoppable.

Moving through difficult terrain doesn’t cost the clockwork abomination extra movement, and its speed can’t be reduced.
