The skeleton squire, also known as BoneRider, is an undead monster that appears in Dragon Quest VII.

Characteristics

Skeleton squires are undead nobles riding on top of mad horses. They carry a silver lance and shield, wear an extravagant plumed hat on top of their powdered wig, and wear green cloaks with orange boots and bracers. Their steeds are brown with purple manes. Despite their similarities in appearance to grim riders, they are distinct monsters with subtle differences.
