| Description = Skeletons are the animated bones of the dead, brought to unlife through foul magic. While most skeletons are mindless automatons, they still possess an evil cunning imparted to them by their animating force -- a cunning that allows them to wield weapons and wear armor.  Skeletons are motivated by an intense hatred and jealously towards living things. They yearn only to crush that spark of life from everything they can reach.

:Burning Skeletons are magically imbued with elemental fire during their creation, a process which involves the ritual sacrifice of a fire elemental. While in combat, they are enshrouded in flames, their charred, black bones cracking under the heat, as marrow boils.  Their curse of immortality prevents the fire from debilitating them.

| Role-Only--Replace-Rez-Power--Description = When a Skeleton is first made dead, it is not really destroyed. Instead, as an immediate free action, its various bones burst apart in a vicious explosion of flying bits, that effects an area {{#expr:{{CR|n=5|op=div}}+2}} sides square. All enemy creatures in this area of effect suffer {{CR|n=2|op=mult}} points of {{dmg|bludgeoning}} damage, without save. The skeleton is removed from the field of play, but remains in the initiative order.


| NudgeAbility9ToHit =  
At the start of its next initiative, as a seperate free action, the various bone bits coalesce in a burst of dark energies. The GM inflicts {{CR|n=2|op=mult}} points of {{dmg|necrotic}} damage on all enemy creatures in this space (again, without save), and the skeleton builds itself anew, with its Bloodied hit point value of {{Bloodied-Hit-Points}}, in any unblocked space the GM chooses in that area. Note that this space does NOT have to be unoccupied, and skeletons using this ability can and often do reconstitute themselves inside the space of their enemies(especially Mounted ones), bypassing the need to Clamber and inflicting normal penalties for being inside another creatures space.
  <!--Values: any positive or negative number, or leave blank. Max recommended is +/-4-->


| NudgeAbility9TouchAttack =
Once the skeleton has reconstructed itself as a free action, they may act continue to act normally at their usual initiative tick, until really 'killed', as the GM desires.

| OutOfCombat = Skeletons cannot be killed by normal means.  However, low-level skeletons like these may lie shattered and dormant after being defeated for decades or even centuries before rising again to seek to rid the world of life. A [[sanctify corpse (Spell)]],  [[consecrate (Spell)]] or [[ gentle repose (Spell)]] will add ten years and a day to the time it takes for a skeleton to re-compose. A [[resurrection (Spell)]] spell will bring the person associated with the skeleton back to life, destroying the necromantic bond on its corpse.

Special Abilities

Flaming Orb (Sp) Standard Action

As a standard action, the Burning Skeleton may pull a ball of burning pitch from its bones and hurl it at its foes. This is a ranged touch attack made at 1d20 + 14 vs. AC (always hits on a 17+ on the die). The orb must have an actual enemy creature as its primary target (they cannot target an empty square), and misses do nothing.

The flaming orb has a range increment of 50 feet and a maximum range of five increments (250 feet), and explodes upon impact with its target, dealing 1d8+6 points of fire (energy, common) damage to its primary target. Furthermore, all adjacent targets suffer half this damage as splash damage.

As a full attack action, the Burning Skeleton may use Flaming Orb twice in one round.

Flaming Orb is a spell-like ability, but burning skeletons are mindless, so they will never use this ability if they are adjacent to, or threatened by, an opponent (they will use melee instead). If they are forced to make a Caster Check to combat-cast, the check always fails.

Burning Aura (Su, Aura) Automatic

Any attack with a to-hit roll made against the burning skeleton inflict 6 points of fire (energy, common) damage on the attacker, whether hit or miss. This aura affects all attacks made against it, by anyone in the encounter, up to 100 feet away from the Burning Skeleton.

Corpse Explosion (Sp) Auto Upon Death

Upon being destroyed in a single battle for the final time, the burning skeleton explodes in a gout of fire. All adjacent creatures take 1d8+6 points of fire (energy, common) damage, but may make a Reflex save (DC 18) for half this damage. This is a spell-like ability, but it is a free action and never provokes attacks of opportunity (though it may be resisted with spell resistance).

Burning Skeleton

Burning Skeleton

Skeletons are the animated bones of the dead, brought to unlife through foul magic. While most skeletons are mindless automatons, they still possess an evil cunning imparted to them by their animating force -- a cunning that allows them to wield weapons and wear armor. Skeletons are motivated by an intense hatred and jealously towards living things. They yearn only to crush that spark of life from everything they can reach.

Burning Skeletons are magically imbued with elemental fire during their creation, a process which involves the ritual sacrifice of a fire elemental. While in combat, they are enshrouded in flames, their charred, black bones cracking under the heat, as marrow boils. Their curse of immortality prevents the fire from debilitating them.

Combat Tactics

Burning skeletons can't hide. They give off light as a torch (30 feet of bright, 30 more feet of dim), and they are easily recognizable for what they are (the name says it all). Furthermore, they are mindless and immortal, and will simply wait in whatever location they happen to be in until something living comes along. Then they will hurl flaming orbs at the creature until it dies.

Burning skeletons will always use flaming orbs if they are not in melee, capitalizing on their full attacks when possible. They will use move actions or five foot steps each round to edge closer to battle, until at least one enemy is within fifty feet of them. They do not have precise shot, but as mindless undead, they will not adjust their aim to easier targets. Burning skeletons will ignore the presence of non-living creatures, such as other undead, which means they won't target them with attacks but neither will they exclude them from their attacks' areas of effect. Their first choice of targets will be any ranged attackers doing damage to them, then they will seek to destroy clumps of living enemy creatures adjacent to one another, and failing that, they target the nearest living enemy creature.

If confronted in melee, they will draw their scimitars and fight in melee. Upon being destroyed for good, they explode, injuring anything adjacent.

Burning skeletons will never flee from battle, nor will they employ tactics like flanking maneuvers. However, burning skeletons are sometimes used as guards by necromancers and other evil creatures. In such cases, the burning skeletons may have been instructed to stand in an area which grants them a terrain advantage or makes them harder to reach while they rain down flaming orbs on intruders.

Out of Combat

Immortality
Many undead creatures, such as this one, cannot be killed by normal means. However, it will lie shattered and dormant after being defeated for up to a century before rising again to seek to rid the world of life. Casting either Sanctify Corpse (Cleric Spell) or Gentle Repose (Cleric Spell) on the defeated corpse of the creature will add an additional one hundred years to the time it takes for it to re-compose. Laying the defeated corpse on consecrated ground for a full day will prevent it from ever rising again, as will casting Rest Eternal (Cleric Spell) on it. Applying Raise Dead (Cleric Spell), Resurrection (Cleric Spell), or using similar life-giving abilities will restore the original soul back to the corpse, bringing that person back to life and permanently destroying the necromantic animus that had possessed the body previously. This creature's body will never decay (further than it already has) nor age due to time or neglect.
