Clockwerk
The cyborg owl fueled by hatred for the Cooper Clan.
Clockwerk (voiced by Kevin Blackton) is the main antagonist of Sly 1 and the posthumous overarching antagonist of Sly 2. He is a Eurasian eagle-owl who was turned into a cyborg after being initially fueled by his hatred and jealousy for the Cooper Clan and their reputation as great thieves.
Lore & Background
Determined to outlive the Coopers and eventually wipe them all out, he replaced his body with machinery so that he could live much longer than any normal being. He was first defeated in the Krak-Karov Volcano in Russia by Sly at the end of the first game, but his body survived the lava and was placed in the Cairo Museum, where it was stolen by the Klaww Gang, setting up the events of Sly 2. Although Clockwerk himself does not actually appear in the second game, the parts of his body are the driving force behind the Cooper Gang's actions, taking down the Klaww Gang to retrieve all of them and ultimately destroy them. But the parts ultimately end up in the hands of the Klaww Gang's leader, Arpeggio, and Clockwerk is rebuilt before Neyla joins herself with the Clockwerk frame to become 'Clock-La.' However, the new Clock-La was short-lived and defeated shortly afterward by Sly and Carmelita.
Reader's Guide
Clockwerk is the primary antagonist of the first game only, not the entire trilogy.
