For those who thought that Skeletons were just a bunch of bones, think again. No matter what type, All skeletons are magically animated undead monsters. They are created by evil wizards or powerful priests. They are mainly created as guardians, however some like the Giant Skeletons are created as sole warriors.
At first glance, Skeletons appear to have no ligaments or actual body structure for movement. This is because the bones are joined by magic through a powerful "animate dead" spell, usually cast only by a wizard. Skeletons have no eyes or internal organs.
The man sized Skeletons always fight with some form of weapon, usually a sword. Some use an axe and others can use a bow and arrow if the spell cast to animate them grants them that ability. Skeletons are immune to all charm, sleep and hold spells, they are not difficult to kill but are a nuisance nonetheless.
Skeletons have no actual habitat, they can usually be found lingering around where-ever a Wizard or priest is near to create them. Not all Skeletons are of an evil nature. Some of the neutral priests will create an entire army of Skeletons if harm or danger is nearby. Unless the Skeletons remains are destroyed at death or scattered far apart from one another, they can be re-created at any time.
