Aeon Blister Can remain dormant in timeless stasis for any amount of time, eternal time, and then attack at the preprogrammed moment, coded into its clock by the Mainframe. They seem to coordinate this to the exact moment they are encountered, somehow perfectly calculated down to the precise nanosecond.

Description
Clockwork Destroyers stand on three curved, crablike legs and have a hunched over appearance of a mechanical warrior. Their arms are just large deathray weapons and the whole contraption can suddenly roll into a ball and move at incredible speed in any direction. They are impervious to ranged weapons, as an invisible wall stops arrows and other projectiles.
The Clockwork Destroyers seem to be waiting for the perfect time to make their ambush, but only in small numbers. Whatever they are truly waiting for seems to be the destruction of the vast clockwork machinery itself, for which they are singularly equipped, as rolling along and making precise and destructive deathray blasts would cause catastrophic damage. Why the Mainframe would place the sleeper mechanical creatures for such a purpose isn't known, only that it has calculated that this is what must happen.
Clockwork Destroyers sometimes work in groups to try to destroy vital cogs of the cosmic engines before the guardians find them and protracted battles ensue. Clockwork Destroyers can easily eradicate something like a Clockwork Keeper, but they are still outnumbered and will eventually be defeated. Instead, they focus on causing as much damage to the larger machines as possible.
They were built by the Mainframe, their mysterious deity, and sent to wait for their one purpose, which is to besiege the massive clockwork machinery in precision strikes at calculated moments in history.
