Skeleton Rider

These mounted skeletons were once great warriors thundering across the plains. In life, they had not yet acquired the skill and strength of the more experienced of their ranks, but they were equal in terms of speed; they could dash into battle as fast as those more experienced. This is still apparent even now, trapped in unlife as they are to spread fear and destruction. Novice fighters should have no problem fighting these, but need remember the speed of the skeletal mounts.

Special Notes: This unit can move unseen in deep water, requiring no air from the surface.
