The '''Drone Family''' of monsters is different than the other monster families in that it does not have an icon and is not used as a possible stratum theme. Drones simply move within their parameters and cause damage or status effects when they come into contact with knights. Drones do not have item drops.

Monster Group.png

Monsters are the terrible creatures that can be found within the ever-changing halls of the Clockworks. Varying greatly in strength and intelligence, monsters are the primary obstacle keeping the Spiral Knights from the secrets and treasures of the world beneath Cradle.

For ease of reference, monsters are broken up into several families. This grouping typically indicates similar appearances and types of attack, as well as general weaknesses they may have to particular items or damage types.

Beast Family

The Beast Family consists of all the creatures within the Clockworks that growl, yelp, bark, and roar. Everything from the pesky Wolvers to the sneaky Chromalisks belong to this vicious family.

Beasts are weak against Defense piercing icon.png Piercing damage and strong against Defense elemental icon.png Elemental damage.

Construct Family

The Construct Family consists of a variety of machines and automatons found throughout the Clockworks. Many Constructs are of Gremlin design, built to protect the Clockworks from intruders or to help the Gremlins wreak havoc. Other constructs of unknown origin can be found throughout the Clockworks, although almost all are hostile and determined to defend the Clockworks at any cost.

Constructs are weak against Defense elemental icon.png Elemental damage and strong against Defense piercing icon.png Piercing damage. All of them are immune to Icon status sleep.png sleep status.

The Gremlin Family is a race of small, mischievous humanoids that are fascinated with machinery and endlessly tinker away at anything they can find. The gremlins were brought to the Clockworks by an unknown means and serve as its builders and repairmen. However, their efforts are often marred by their own tendency to break whatever it is they're attempting to fix, or in many cases, blow it up completely (they're fond of explosives). It is believed that gremlins take their orders from the Crimson Order and King Tinkinzar, or perhaps even from the Core itself.
