A skeleton is the reanimated bones of a humanoid. It is reanimated by dark magic, whether deliberately or by some side effect. On occasion will rise in places such as graveyards, mass burial sites or on ancient battle sites saturated by death, and attracting the energy from evil or necromantic magic. They are usually controlled by evil beings to act as soldiers or bodyguards, and will do so until their master dies. When this happens they will usually wander a region until someone takes over control or they are destroyed. If encountering any living being they will attack it on sight. 

Suggested Environments

Graveyards, ancient battle fields, villains lairs, old tomb complexes, underground warrens....
