- ☠️ Skeleton Army – The Most Confident Lightning Mage ☠️ - 30 April 2025
In life, he was a legendary grand sorcerer—tall, dignified, draped in a suit-like robe, with massive skeletal wings unfurled behind him. The Elemancer fights with dazzling flair, channeling crackling lightning between his hands that strikes fear into all who see it. Proud and aloof, he often looks down on his fellow skeletons. Yet, to avoid fading away from magical exhaustion, he takes it upon himself to cook and care for Sybelle’s daily needs. Compared to the rest of the undead lost in their own fantasies, Morta is more like a sharp-tongued but dependable butler. Morta: "Master, you must eat. Excessive dieting would be most troubling for me."
- ☠️ Skeleton Army – The Coolest Archer ☠️ - 27 April 2025
If you spot a cloaked figure perched silently atop a distant treetop, you’re likely looking at this mysterious beastkin archer. Emerald Shadow always strives to maintain her “cool” image—but she can’t resist seeking her master's approval. She often brings back rabbits or small monsters as trophies, proudly showing them off to earn praise. Unfortunately, fashion isn’t her strong suit, and her efforts rarely impress. This only fuels her determination to stand out, displaying an almost obsessive fighting spirit within the squad. Ullr: "Master! Behold my flawless archery! And look—I brought you something cute!"
- ☠️ Skeleton Army – The Most Joyful Bard ☠️ - 25 April 2025
Wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat and strumming a flamboyant guitar, Bard was once a wandering musician full of cheer. Even in death, now reduced to bare bones, he still radiates that same carefree spirit. The Macabre Bard loves to improvise, channeling musical energy into dazzling critical strikes against enemies. Unfortunately, he has zero danger awareness—constantly stumbling into traps mid-battle, then chuckling as he pieces his bones back together. When Bard is deep in performance mode, even necromancers have to tolerate the noise—after all, no battlefield would be complete without the chaotic joy of this explosive skeleton jester. Bard: "Master! My toe bone’s stuck in a hole… Please, a little help…?"
- ☠️ Skeleton Army – The Most Loyal Warrior ☠️ - 23 April 2025
A warrior clad in the skull of a beast, the Beastmaster excels at close-range physical combat. If you’re the type to charge headfirst into battle, this rugged frontline fighter is your ideal pick. In life, Hum was a mercenary obsessed with physical strength. Upon death, his loyal beast companion was revived alongside him, and their souls fused into one. As a result, he now possesses an animal’s keen sense of smell and unwavering loyalty—especially to the Witch, whose orders he follows without question. However… there is one weakness: he's extremely sensitive to strong scents. Even the faintest fragrance can throw him off balance. Hum: "Mistress… the scent is too strong… it’s bothering me… ah-choo!"
- ☠️ Skeleton Army – The Most Alluring Witch ☠️ - 21 April 2025
If you ever come across a woman in a sleek black off-shoulder gown, wearing a half-skull mask… be on high alert. The mysterious Hexmage carries with her a cursed spellbook, said to contain pages filled with cruel and merciless incantations—each one a brand-new way to torment her unfortunate targets. Beneath her icy elegance lies a deep loathing for deceitful men. Should anyone dare harbor impure thoughts, she’ll quietly lure them in with her subtle charm… then obliterate them with overwhelming dark magic. Indigo: "My lovely little master, don’t go messing up your hair again."
- First Look at the Skeleton Army of Rhythm Witch: Beat Death! - 20 April 2025
Hey Skeletons! Starting today, we’ll be introducing the quirky and unique characters from Rhythm Witch: Beat Death — and who better to begin with than our adorable master herself: Sibel! 🧙 Skeleton Sorceress - Sibel (Necromancer) She may look like a mischievous and charming young girl, but she’s actually over 700 years old! Clad in a frilly gothic dress and always holding a floating skull, Sibel even lounges on a crescent-shaped floating moon, surrounded by semi-transparent skeleton minions. Sibel is obsessed with bizarre and eerie beauty rituals — whether it’s necromantic magic, blood baths, or any creepy-sounding remedy, she’s willing to try it all in pursuit of eternal beauty. As for chores? That’s what her summoned skeletons are for! Sibel is far too lazy to lift a finger herself... or even take a single step, really. After all, she’s still a “young lady.” Sibel: "With the secret t…
