Spookem Skelemin

Spookem Skelemin
[Excited Rattling]

Spookem Skelemin (also known variously as Spooky, Skeletor, Spookems, Skelly, Bonebro, and other nicknames) is a notable member of a mysterious group known as the Skeleton Collective. Operating through a mystical plane of existence called Skeleton Hell, he is believed to be a very high-ranking member of the Collective, if not their leader.

Spookem himself is a very relaxed and easygoing individual. Despite an inborn love of spooking others and rattling his bones, he seems to be of 'good' morality. Despite his usual nature, however, he is easily swayed by promises of calcium or fat asses. Luckily, he is quite nonconfrontational, rarely using his power outside of harmless shenanigans or planned friendly battles. For the most part, he's quite easy to get along with, provided one can get used to a constant rattling sound.

Likes: Milk, fat anime asses, xylophones, rattling butts

Dislikes: Calcium deficiency, losing his skull, evil demons

Bio
Once a normal citizen of Skeleton Hell, Spookem spent many of his dead days partying, chilling with other skeletons (occasionally referred to as boneboys), and drinking milk. It was a peaceful life, one he enjoyed greatly. All of that was torn from him when an outside force attacked Skeleton Hell. A helicopter armed with destructive heavy weaponry invaded the realm, killing many innocent skeletons during its rampage.

Spookem called upon the power of the Gravelords, seen as gods by the inhabitants of Skeleton Hell. He prayed for the salvation and well-being of his people, and was gifted with the power of a million good bones. Immediately, Spookems found his prayers answered, and reformed as an angelic skeleton. Utilizing his power to its fullest, he sacrificed his physical form to destroy the helicopter, saving the survivors that still dwelled within Skeleton Hell.

The helicopter, as it turned out, was no mere machine. It was a demon of the Netherrealm, a place with a long hatred of Skeleton Hell. The demon inhabitants of Netherrealm were jealous of the peace and prosperity that Skeleton Hell enjoyed, and sought it out for themselves rather than have to continue their eternities of torturous existence.

A great war broke out between the two realms, and great swathes of demon and skeleton alike were slain. Spookem begged the Gravelords for another chance to protect his home and people, and was given another physical form. He gained even more power, rivaling even the minor Gravelords themselves. Utilizing powerful Necromagics, Spookem raised armies of undead to fight back against the demons, turning their fallen against themselves and giving his compatriots another fighting chance. The war was long and brutal, lasting nearly ten thousand skeleton years.

Spookem finally came face to face with the king of Netherrealm, a nameless entity known only as the Demon King. The two engaged in a battle of legendary proportion, warping miles of landscape around them with each strike. Armies were shaken by their clash, and the realms themselves threatened to be torn asunder by the power the two demonstrated. Spookem's power began to falter, as even the gifts bestowed on him by the Gravelords was not enough to destroy the Demon King.

As he came close to defeat, Spookem heard something. A thousand xylophones and the prayers of all of Skeleton Hell's boneboys, united into a cacophonous chant. Reminded of what he was fighting for, Spookem felt a great surge of power. Using it to its fullest extent, Spookem defeated the Demon King once and for all, freeing Skeleton Hell of Netherrealm's invasions. Spookem took the Demon King's power before he left Netherrealm, leaving the demons without a leader.

After his return, Spookem began to train himself into a mighty leader. A perfect skeleton who could rival the Gravelords themselves. Eventually, he departed Skeleton Hell, seeking to explore the world and indulge in things that even his home lacked.

Powers and weaknesses
Spookem is a very powerful necromancer, able to form and control swathes of undead out of seemingly nothing. His Necromagics, as he calls them, bestow good bones and calcium onto the target, and animate any empty skeleton he may focus them on. It can likewise produce Screaming Skulls, floating skeleton heads that attack with piercing screams, bites, and fire.

As an appointed protector by the Gravelords, Spookem is host to a variety of physical forms with different uses.

His original and most commonly seem form is simply a skeleton, occasionally dressed in various outfits but most often without clothing, save for a pair of orange-tinted triangular sunglasses. While they have become a rarer sight as of recent, they hold a special place in his bony heart.

Other forms include the formation of flesh into various body shapes. A purple-skinned muscular form called the 'Skeletor' body is common behind his base form, while a more delicate but still male form called the 'Waifu' body has been noted.

In battle, he can take the form of a giant skeleton, known 'Hungy Skeleton' form (or Gashadokuro if you speak weeaboo). In this form, he resembles the Gravelords themselves, and his Necromagic power increases tenfold.

Finally, using the stolen power of the Demon King, Spookem can enter the form of a gigantic demon skeleton. His angelic form used during the initial revolt against Netherrealm has not been used since his battle with the Demon King. It's unknown if he's lost it or if he simply does not use it anymore.

Despite his strength, Spookem is subject to weaknesses typical of skeleton kind. He requires a steady intake of calcium to keep his bones good, and thus can be bribed quite easily with milk. Likewise, his love of fleshy women (or boys that look like women, depending) has made him subject to a powerful lust, which can be abused for personal gain. In his base form, he's physically quite weak, as a pile of walking bones can be quite easily knocked apart.
