SKELETON
Despite their well known usefulness when it comes to supporting a
person's body and organs, many skeletons seem to resent the attention
given to skin and muscle, and so when they "go solo" (as they term it)
and the rest of their body disintegrates, many of them gather whatever
armor and weapons they can before setting about attacking passing
"fleshies" (as they call those who have not yet died and decayed).
Despite
their well-known aversion to skin, skeletons do seem to have relatively
cordial relations with zombies, whom they view as aspiring skeletons.
Zombies and skeletons can often be seen working together to attack
adventurers (or mourners) in cemeteries.
