Watchers are typically deployed from the armored carapace of their [[Promethean Knight]] commanders, assisting them with aerial combat screening and often forcing opponents to engage the Sentinel first. The Watcher is capable of healing and augmenting damaged allies, providing them with [[hard light]] shields, and can catch and return enemy ordnance, such as [[grenade]]s, with a [[Anti-gravity technology|gravity-displacement field]].<ref name="H4 Characters"/> They are also capable of summoning [[Promethean Crawler]]s to the battlefield via [[Slipspace translocation|teleportation]] and are armed with a small beam.<ref name="demo"/>

Unlike the angular, blue-lit appearance of most Sentinels, Watchers have curving carapaces with orange lights. They have a number of appendages, including what appear to be legs hanging below the midsection and two large disks on both sides. Most of these segments lack physical joints and are held together by energy fields. Above the midsection there appears to be a head with stylized facial features.
