Skeletons are undead beings who have not entered the realm of the dead for reasons which scholars have debated for years, and although skeletons usually appear in cemeteries or ancient crypts, they are not precisely creatures of the underworld.
Because skeletons existed before the dark wave, some suspect that they may be under an ancient curse which denies them eternal peace until they eventually find someone or something to free them from their undead existence.
Although once human, skeletons have lost their intelligence along with their flesh and wander about as witless horrors, driven only by the desire to destroy every living thing they meet. Skeletons can be defeated with conventional weapons; it has proven most effective to break their decayed bones with strong blunt weapons and simple brute force. Missiles do relatively little damage.
