A skeleton is an undead creature made of humanoid bones.

Appearance

Unlike other mobs adapted to the film, skeletons bare some noticeable differences from their original design. They closely resemble a regular skeleton, however with more angular, cubic bones, most notably the square head and rib cage. Where the original model had no visible fingers or feet, the redesign has them in both more square and realistic forms respectively. Their head is a near perfect cube, with only very slight curves on the jawbone and beveled edges. As well, the face is noticeably more aggressive if not cocky, designed to look like they have eyebrows.

Behavior

Skeletons are shown to be monstrous creatures, though unlike zombies quite intelligent, as they wield bows, most of which are enchanted with flames. In extreme circumstances, they can work together with spiders, becoming spider jockeys.

Powers and abilities

As with other undead, they combust when exposed to sunlight. Unlike zombies, they lack any apparent physical strength, and in fact can be slain very easily, several dying from a crash into a small flame.

Biography

Following the appearance of four heroes from Earth, several skeletons would try to hunt them down on their first night. One of them, Garrett Garrison, would try digging into the ground while being barraged with attacks from skeletons.

Quotes

“

SKELETON - Hostile creatures that spawn in hordes every time night falls in the Overworld, SKELETONS attack with bow and arrow. Like all Night Mobs, they have a strong allergy to sunlight (very strong — it kills them)
