- Race: Skeletons
- Color:: Grey. Location in Gronk, possibly close to the Ruins
- Fluff: Deep beneath the ground lies a cavern and a ruinous city of tall broken structures of concrete and twisted metal, the ground littered with unfathomable artifacts and scraps. The very air, ground, and water seems to be poisoned, especially around a large in the center of the city surrounded by molten rock and steel now grown coal. The grave of a bygone civilization
- But not entirely bygone
- The dead live here. Bones assembling themselves to walk again. Unsure of the what or why, simply that they are and intelligent to recognize this
- But they would have been left without a purpose had not the first of them to rise made a historical discovery. He had found some still working artifacts of the old age, the only one left of the city, detailing a world inhabited by beings of flesh, wearing the same clothes, living in the same city but alive!
- They realized that they must be the skeletons of those people, their purpose must be to continue living. To live on after death. This view was further enhanced by a strange room with a "glowing sun that shown rainbows" and music from a machine that played this:

- Modeling their culture and livelyhood over the old civilization, they set about "living." Despite the fact that they do not need the needs of the living, they perform the same activities faithfully, eating, sleeping, working, and most of all, dancing. They see the value in that!
- Government Type: Republican Democracy. They are lead by "President Skeleton", who discovered the music room and impressed them all with dance moves
