In the New Kingdom-themed ranks of the warriors of Nehekhara, Skeleton Warriors are the mainline infantry to be found supporting both giant constructs and their masters in the deserts of the far south. There, rows upon rows of generations of warriors will march into battle, willing to die a countless number of times for their God-kings, as they have swore an eternal oath of loyalty before the gods of Nehekhara, which they intend to carry out.

Unlike the skeleton warriors of the vile necromancers to the north, the Skeleton Warriors of Nehekhara all pledged themselves willingly to their king, and are not mindless automata before them. Instead, when their king died, they would be lead to grand caverns and courtyards before the pyramid by their Master in Arms, and [[grimdark|caused them to stand perfectly still and in rank as heavy boulders blocked all light from view and hot sand filled above their standard pole, suffocating them to death,]] only to awaken once the Great Necromancer's curse filled the lands of Nehekhara with necrotic energies, raising them once again to heed the call of their kings and Liche Priests, once again calling their souls back from the Realm of the Dead to be bound to their now decayed bodies, no longer able to fully remember the life they once had as well as their mummified leaders. However, they will always remember their undying loyalty to their king with perfect sincerity and clarity, as well as their devotion to the Gods.

The Skeleton Warriors of the Tomb Kings not only have more experience with their khopeshes, spears, and maces then almost any living creature, but also carry shields and banners showing archaic symbols of their devotion. Though they no longer carry lungs, their war horns still sound just as loud as they did in life. None break rank, except to gather the bones of their fallen comrades so that they may rise once again should their king fall and need to be resurrected. With no fear, pain, nor fatigue, skeleton warriors will continue to fight until they crumble to dust, no matter how overwhelming the foe or how impossible the odds. They know not mercy, only that they must obey their king's decrees to the letter and with no hesitation. Thus very few mortals are able to fight them in the unbearable Nehekharan sun without fleeing in terror or fainting outright, but those that do will find they are not particularly strong, but their numbers make them indomitable.
