The Harpers' Read
A skeleton is bone given motion by another's will — no mind of its own, only its raiser's orders. It is brittle: a crushing blow (a mace, a hammer, a falling rock) shatters it far better than a cut or a thrust. It feels no poison and no weariness. Bring blunt force, and where you can, deal with whatever raised it.
Encounters of Record
Skeletal dead of the fallen dwarves in Wave Echo Cave (9), and again among temple guardians (35).
