Background
[[Image:Mon-skeletal-shieldman4.jpg|thumb|right|250px|[[Skeletal Shieldman|Shieldmen]] protect [[Skeletal Archer|archers]].]]Skeletons themselves generally have a quite limited intelligence, even if their capability to understand and carry out orders exceed those of a [[Zombie]]. They are more organized, and blindly determined to whatever task is set before them. Even simpler forms of skeletons are capable of using simple tools, and they have been observed to use swords, clubs, bows, and even armour and shields (often equipped in the same armament in which they fell). They are walking vessels of [[Hell]]'s influence on the mortal realm (besides the ones raised by a [[Priest of Rathma]]), and are corpses and spirits of the deceased, which are twisted and corrupted, are imbued with a hatred for the living that defies understanding. They don't seek consume the flesh of the living like [[Zombie]]s, but they are intent on extinguishing the life of their victims. Some reports have also said that victims of some of these skeletons have risen themselves as skeletal soldiers against the still living.
