Skeletal Horrors

Skeletal Horrors

Description

The remnants of fallen warriors cursed to wander eternally, these skeletal monsters are shrouded in tattered, bloodstained remnants of their once-proud armor, their bones blackened and charred by the fires of the afterlife. With hollow eye sockets emanating an otherworldly glow, they wield spectral weapons with an unnatural dexterity, instilling dread in the hearts of any who dare cross their path. Driven by a thirst for vengeance, Skeletal Horrors mercilessly hunt those who trespass upon their cursed domain, their haunting wails echoing through the night, a haunting reminder of the tragic fate that befell them.
