Wither Skeleton

Wither Skeletons are hostile mobs that spawn in Nether Fortresses. They carry stone swords and are over two blocks tall. Skeleton spawn eggs sometimes spawn Wither Skeletons instead of standard ones when used in the Nether.

When hit by a Wither Skeleton you are inflicted with "Wither" effect for a few seconds.

Wither skeletons also occasionally pick up the player's items/spawn with gear.

Wither skeletons, like all nether mobs are fireproof and don't burn in daylight. They occasionally appear to catch on fire, like Zombie pigman

Wither Skeletons drop bones and coal on death, and occasionally drop their skull or a stone sword.
