| description = These are found in various low-level zones and are a step up from [[a decaying skeleton|decaying skeletons]] that haunt newbie areas.
Skeletons are a very common creature, found throughout Norrath. About 90% of Skeletons are level 4 to 8, but the ones in Steamfont and Lake Rathe can be much higher level (/consider carefully before engaging). 

Skeletons are always agressive, no matter their level or yours, a level 4 skeleton will still attack a level 50 player. 
Skeletons (and all undead) can see through most Illusions, and the regular invisiblity. Invisibility to Undead is the only thing to make them ignore you. 
Their drop of bone chips aree highly sought after by Necromancers and by some quest NPCs[https://web.archive.org/web/20010722175114/http://eqbeastiary.allakhazam.com:80/search.shtml?id=118].
