Physical Appearance

Burnt Skeletons are charred and blackened due to exposure to fire or extreme heat. Their bones are often cracked and brittle, giving them a fragile appearance. In contrast, Rotten Skeletons are covered in decaying flesh and have a putrid odor emanating from their bodies. Their bones may be discolored and slimy from decomposition.

Combat Abilities

Burnt Skeletons are known for their resistance to fire-based attacks, making them formidable opponents in battles where flames are involved. They may also have the ability to inflict burn damage on their enemies with their fiery touch. On the other hand, Rotten Skeletons are immune to poison and disease, making them difficult to defeat with such tactics. They may also have the ability to spread disease to their foes.

Behavior

Burnt Skeletons are often more aggressive and reckless in their attacks, charging headlong into battle without regard for their own safety. They may also exhibit a tendency to use fire-based tactics to overwhelm their enemies. Rotten Skeletons, on the other hand, are known for their cunning and strategic approach to combat. They may use their decaying appearance to lull their foes into a false sense of security before launching a surprise attack.

Weaknesses

Despite their resistance to fire, Burnt Skeletons are vulnerable to water-based attacks, which can extinguish their flames and weaken their bones. They may also be more susceptible to physical damage due to the brittle nature of their charred bones. Rotten Skeletons, on the other hand, are vulnerable to holy or radiant damage, which can purify their decaying flesh and bones. They may also be weakened by attacks that target their sense of smell.

Origins

Burnt Skeletons are often the result of individuals who perished in fires or were cursed with eternal flames. Their fiery nature may be a reflection of the circumstances of their demise. Rotten Skeletons, on the other hand, are typically the remains of individuals who died from disease or were left to rot in dark, damp environments. Their decaying appearance is a testament to the slow process of decomposition.
