The skeletal creeper is a haunting manifestation of necromantic corruption, a humanoid-shaped plant creature that was once a beautiful vine. Its body is now a skeletal framework draped with tattered remnants of what were once leaves and tendrils. These creatures move with an eerie fluidity, their bony appendages clawing at the air. From a distance, they launch necrotic spores that drift like malevolent fireflies, seeking out their targets. The grove's corrupted aura seems to pulse around them, enhancing their dark powers. Encounters with skeletal creepers are a chilling reminder of the necromantic taint that has seeped into The Whispering Woods.
