A skeleton is a re-animated collection of bones from primarily human corpses (one or more) that has been filled with dark energies as well as spirits of the dead to act as simple guards or servants of dark mages or necromancers.

As iconic as zombies, animated human skeletons have been featured in all of the Diablo games, and just about every other fantasy RPG ever made. In Diablo 3, plain skeleton warriors are joined Skeletal Summoners, Skeletal Archers, Skeletal Shieldmen, Skeletal Executioners and (perhaps) other types not yet revealed. These skeletons spawn in mixed packs and work together with much better AI than they've shown in the previous games in the series.
This "plain" sort of Skeleton with a sword is quite straight forward, and is mostly only dangerous in large packs, or together with other skeletal types. Avoid being surrounded, and kill other high priority targets forst. They typically have a somewhat slow movement speed, normal swing speed, and low damage.
