In owl form you must battle your way through 6 levels of deadly creatures sent by Mentor to destroy you.
Clockwerk the Owl
"Sly Cooper" video Game







CLOCKWERK

Clockwerk is several hundred years old, and has been kept alive by his hatred of the Cooper Family, of whom he was a rival. After Sly was born, Clockwerk founded the Fiendish Five, leading them in an attack on the Cooper family. Clockwerk is responsible for the murder of Sly's family and the theft of the Thievius Raccoonus, which contained all the family's thieving secrets. He was a mysterious figure for much of the game, until he battled Sly in his headquarters in the Krack-Krakov Volcano.

Based in the volcano, Clockwerk had developed a giant Death Ray for unknown reasons. Proving himself a most dangerous adversary, he captured Carmelita Fox and used her to lure Sly into his gas chamber, nearly killing the both of them. Confronting him through the use of a jetpack, Sly learned of Clockwerk's past, which had been hinted at by images of him seen in recovered sections of the Thievius Raccoonus. The two fought, with Sly gaining aid from Carmelita, and Clockwerk was defeated. During the battle, he revealed that he had left Sly alive to show the world that the Cooper Clan was nothing without the Thievius Raccoonus, but Sly proved him wrong, saying: "The Thievius Raccoonus doesn't create great thieves. It takes great thieves to create the Thievius Raccoonus." After the end credits, a view is given of Clockwerk's remains floating in the lava, and one eye lights up, then it shows a scene of Murray screaming.


[edit] Sly 2: Band of Thieves
Clockwerk continued to torture the Cooper Gang in the form of his brain, two lungs, stomach, heart, eyes, talons, wings, tail feathers and frame. These components were recovered by Interpol and put on display in a museum in Cairo. A criminal organization known as the Klaww Gang stole Clockwerk's body parts, using them for their own purposes. Sly and the Gang collected these during their travels, but all were stolen from them by Klaww Gang member Jean Bison, who sold them to his associate Arpeggio.

The robot bird's body would eventually be put back together at the headquarters of the Klaww Gang member Arpeggio. Constable Neyla, who had previously been assumed to be a "good guy", would merge with Clockwerk to form the evil Clock-La. In the final level of the game, Clock-La captures Sly's friends Murray and Bentley and then leads Sly on a dangerous chase through the skies over Paris. Sly once again succeeds in defeating his old foe, and at this point, the true source of Clockwerk's power, the Hate Chip, is discovered. The Hate Chip was destroyed by Carmelita Fox and Clockwerk's metal body deteriorated, forever eliminating the threat to Sly and his friends. Unfortunately, ending Clockwerk's evil cost a terrible price, as Bentley was injured by Clock-La's falling beak, leaving him unable to use his legs from that day on.


[edit] Personality
Accurately described as a monster, Clockwerk was obsessed with proving himself superior to the Cooper Clan. For an unknown period of centuries, he kept himself alive through sheer hatred and jealousy of Sly's family, later augmenting this with robotic parts. Even before he became a robot, Clockwerk had no feelings or pity (Like his mind-to-be, Neyla). Upon Sly entering the gas chamber, the doors slam suddenly, pictures of Clockwerk light up the walls, and he triumphfantly declares over an intercom "Empathy was always the downfall of the Coopers", implying he killed Sly's ancestors with similar tricks. Clockwerk's entire focus was gaining vengeance on the Coopers, which eventually lead to his downfall. Due to the fact that he's been hunting the Cooper family for thousands of years and seeming to have no conscience to guide him, some fans think he's a pychopath.


[edit] Components/Weaponry
Clockwerk's biological body was at some point replaced by highly advanced robot parts constructed from seemingly indestructible metal. This mechanical form was equipped with missiles, flamethrowers, laser emitters, and launchers that could fire electrified rings. Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus also featured a repair system, which Sly had to beat in order to defeat Clockwerk once and for all. In Sly 2, Clockwerk's body was broken down into a number of components, all of which were divided amongst the members of the Klaww Gang. Parts and uses include:

Clockwerk Tail Feathers : Used by Dimitri, the Clockwerk Tail Feathers were put to use as printing plates for his Paris counterfitting operation. Because of their metallurgical properties, the Tail Feathers would have never worn out.
Clockwerk Wings : Taken by Rajan, the Clockwerk Wings weren't put to any practical use. Instead, Rajan had them mounted on a statue in his palace, where he hoped they would bring him prestige.
Clockwerk Heart : Another of Rajan's parts, the Heart acted as a powerful pump that allowed Rajan to grow illegal spices at much faster rates than normal. Half the Heart was used in this manner, while the other was attached to the end of Rajan's staff, allowing him to unleash electrical attacks.
Clockwerk Eyes : Components with powerful entrancing qualities, the Clockwerk Eyes were given to the Contessa, who intended to use them to enhance her own hypnosis machinery.
Clockwerk Lungs and Stomach : Given to Jean Bison for unexplained reasons, the Lungs and Stomach allowed him to keep his Iron Horse trains running all day and night without stopping.
Clockwerk Talons : Razor-sharp blades capable of slicing through plates of steel, the Clockwerk Talons were used by Jean Bison in his lumber jacking enterprise.
Clockwerk Brain : The final Clockwerk part given to Arpeggio, its use was unknown.
Clockwerk Frame : Essentially Clockwerk's body reassembled, the Clockwerk Frame was Arpeggio's plan to gain immortality. Sadly, he was betrayed, and Neyla fused with the Frame instead.
Hate Chip : Power source of the Clockwerk Frame, the Hate Chip is what gave the Clockwerk parts their seeming immortality. Once it was destroyed, the Clockwerk parts faded into nothingness.
