It is not surprising to me that you will join us. Because you are the same as us. Your purpose is the same. Otherwise you are not a proper skele-ton, clearly. A proper skele-ton would converse with his fellow skele-tons about histories and such...

–Upgraded Skeleton Guard

Skeleton Bandits is a faction native to the southeast corner of the continent. They primarily consist of Greenlanders wearing Skeleton Masks. They are lead by Elder, a P4 Unit who enjoys watching humans massacre each other. Elder has brainwashed his human followers into believing that they are Skeletons.

Members of this faction can colour armour and clothing due to a colour scheme attached.

Trivia[]

  • Both Skeleton Bandits and Skin Bandits have neutral relations with each other however they will still fight. They also share the same (100) opinion for Skeleton Legion. However, the Legion still tends to attack both factions.
  • Skeleton Bandits will sometimes say "Resistance is futile". This is an Easter egg quote from the Borg in Star Trek.
