Undead Nature. A skeleton doesn’t require air, sustenance, or sleep.

Fogwalk. The fogborn ignores difficult terrain and damaging effects from terrain as long as its movement takes it in a direct horizontal path and ends in an unoccupied space able to support it.

In addition, when the fogborn enters or leaves a square the area becomes lightly obscured by fog that lasts until the start of the fogborn’s next turn.

Water Walker. The fogborn gains a swim speed equal to its Speed, and it can move across water as if it were solid ground.


Area Vulnerability. The horde takes double damage from any effect that targets an area.

Horde. The horde is composed of 5 or more skeletons. If it is subjected to a spell, attack, or other effect that affects only one target, it takes any damage but ignores other effects. It can share its space with Medium or smaller creatures or objects. The horde can move through any opening large enough for one Medium creature without squeezing.   

Horde Dispersal. When the horde is reduced to 0 hit points, it turns into 2 (1d4) skeletons with 6 hit points each.


ACTIONS

Shortsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 27 (5d6 + 10) piercing damage, or half damage if the horde is bloodied .

Shortbow. Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 80/320 ft., one target. Hit: 27 (5d6 + 10) piercing damage, or half damage if the horde is bloodied .
