Known as the "Guardian of the Sky," the "Heavenly Bowman," or commonly to the people of the Southern Provinces of Grand Cathay simply as "the Watcher," Saytang is the great Terracotta Sentinel that stands atop the Mountains of Heaven. Towering over other Terracotta Sentinels, Saytang is an imposing sight with its outstretched wings and great stone feathered helm.^[1]

Those who have witnessed Saytang in battle claim no armour or barrier can turn aside the arrows it fires from its great wind bow, the shafts piercing the ranks of the enemies and even the iron hides of fell beasts. And though Saytang cannot fly in the true sense, its power allows it to leap great distances, even jumping from mountain peak to mountain peak in the defence of the Celestial Empire.^[1]

Saytang uses a giant magical bow called the Wind Bow to fire artillery-grade projectiles into enemy lines. Saytang is also relatively strong in close combat, and possesses the ability to enhance the combat prowess of other magical constructs like its fellow Terracotta Sentinels when they fight adjacent to it.^[1]
