Set Defense◆

The skeletal pathfinder sets its glaive (or other reach weapon) to defend the area around it. It gains the Attack of Opportunity reaction for that weapon only. This lasts until the skeleton takes an action with the move or attack trait or is destroyed.

These soldiers continue to follow orders in death, still wielding the armaments they spent a lifetime learning how to use. While frequently made from the bones of humans or dwarves, other types of humanoids are quite common, such as bugbears, hobgoblins, and orcs. Often, these soldiers wield the weapons most common among their people instead of those listed here.

Among the ranks of the dead, none are so numerous, nor so varied, as the skeleton. While most are almost entirely made from bone, some maintain a few scraps of flesh to aid them in movement, such as wing membranes.
