The Watcher is a small machine designed to detect enemy threats. Watchers are equipped with scanning technology and report their findings to other machines in the advent of enemy detection. They often roam in large packs or alongside larger machines.
Watchers have a symbiotic relationship with other machines like Striders. The Watchers provide a watchful eye and patrol the perimeter in case of danger, allowing the Striders to calmly "graze". As long as the Watcher stays close by, the Striders will charge any actual threat.

Description
The Watchers' appearance resembles that of a small theropod dinosaur, albeit without forelimbs.
Despite being the smallest encountered machine, it still is as big as a large dog. Their most distinctive feature is their disproportionate head which houses a powerful, glowing sensor array and a spotlight, all mounted on a long neck that allows the machine to quickly swivel its head to observe its surrounding. The head is easily bigger than even the torso, but this is because it houses most of the gear.
Compared to the head, the Watcher's body looks ridiculously small. It balances on two very thin and simple legs resembling running prosthetics, and its head is balanced by a long, heavy tail.
