The '''dark skeleton''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in the original [[Dragon Quest|game]]. It is a pitch-black variant of the regular [[skeleton]]. Much like [[shade]]s and [[silhouette]]s, they are animated shadows that attack adventurers; the difference being that the dark skeleton has retained the solid mass of its physical self.
