'together' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?

(Other definitions for twelve that I've seen before include "houses in a year?" , "[MIDNIGHT], perhaps" , "Number of Apostles" , "Last hour" , "Lunchtime" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
