Skeletons
Skeletons arise when a creature is animated by dark magic. They
heed the summons of spellcasters who call them from their stony
tombs and ancient battlefields, or rise of their own accord in
places saturated with death and loss, awakened by stirrings of
necromantic energy or the presence of corrupting evil. Skeletal
undead can be created from the bones of other creatures besides
humanoids, giving rise to a host of terrifying and unique forms.
