Reanimated Skeleton

The Ar can be used for actions both noble and nefarious. Necromancers and clerics of dark gods have passed down the secrets of reanimating the dead by tearing a hapless individual's soul from the afterlife and binding it to their skeletal remains. The result of this vile ritual is the creation of an undead, mindless automaton that can follow simple commands given by their master; these necromantic creations are often used to guard tombs or treasure vaults. They are particularly feared by adventurers due to the fact that as mindless undead, they display no instincts of self-preservation and will attack interlopers until they are destroyed by arms, magic or theurgy.
