Appearance
Skeletons in Minecraft Dungeons are different in color unlike their original counterparts, with their bones being marble-colored and parts near its legs or joints being darker.
Behavior
Skeletons harm the player by shooting arrows with bows from a distance. They flee when the player gets near them.
Skeletons also have a rare behavior when idle, where they will spin their skull very fast as if playing their heads. They have a sound file named "Novelty Spin" which plays when this behavior occurs. They have 10% more HP than the zombie but their damage is less than half.
