Skeleton Lord

**Race** | * Heteromorphic Race

The **Skeleton Lord** (死者の大戦士主い, *Shisha Daisenshishui*?, Lit. "The Great Warrior of the Dead") are one of the high-tier heteromorphic races players were able to pick in YGGDRASIL. It's the final form of the Skeleton Warrior, Skeleton Archer and Skeleton Rider, a powerful physical undead fighter that utilizes weapons such as swords and bows and seeks to become the ultimate combatant.

## Background

A Skeleton Lord are rare high-tier monsters that spawn in specific locations, however it's not known how Skeleton Lords appear unlike the Elder Lich where they spawn due to a corpse of a evil magic caster gains unholy life through rituals. The Skeleton Lords are held in one of the highest regards in the New World, being considered much more deadlier then any of other Skeletons only rivalled by the Overlord, another high-tier skeleton race. Skeleton Lords are feared due to their commanding might over vast undead armies and battalions, more often seen as an direct rival to the Overlord General but many believe the Overlord General holds higher authority based on name alone.

In YGGDRASIL however, there is no other variants or types of Skeleton Lord as they're made to be the exact opposite of a Overlord, mastering physical weapons and armours to achieve their goals. Due to this there is a rivalry between players of Overlord and those that become Skeleton Lords due to positions. However Skeleton Lords can still utilize Tier Magic regardless, but considered inferior in comparison to a Overlord.

In the New World however, Skeletons Lords are just as rare as the sole Overlord in the world, with only conjecture and rumours circulating around the New World that even speaks on their existence. According to many magic caster's the skull of an Skeleton Lord is one of the most valuable objects out there, containing enough mana to power a single individual for a solid hundred years, as well revealing secrets of the undead.

## Acquisition

Conventionally, an player can acquire Skeleton Lord by going through the ranks of the Skeleton Warrior, Knight and Commander to obtain it after maxing out on the two. However due to being an beta tester to YGGDRASIL, Lionheart has been able to acquire Skeleton Lord through an alternative means outside of the conventional. Lionheart acquired it by becoming it inside the game itself with unique questlines that would lead to his "reincarnation" as Skeleton Lord.

One of the requirements however was to reach level-40, which is ten levels higher to acquire the class racially (warrior is 15, knight is 10 and commaner is 5).

## Appearance

Skeleton Lords appearance varies on player to player, however they appear in heavy armour that hides their skeletal body. However their bones are seen as clean and healthy, contributing to their more nobility status as "lords". Due to being able to wear body armour, there is no set armour appearance for them as they can choose almost any armour they can see.

## Abilities

Skeleton Lords are powerful undead generals and warriors capable of learning the highest of melee techniques and able to learn all forms of techniques on any weapon items from swords to bows and much more beyond the mortal limits. Skeleton Lords not only are considered one of the strongest physical races in terms of melee combat prowess, they can even use magic attributed to the Undead, such as Create Undead and command entire legions of the undead.
