Skelebond
The Skelebond (JP: さまようほね) is one of two Pure Breed monsters in the Skeleman family, introduced in What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord!?.
Skelebonds randomly spawn from Treasure Chests or fossils found throughout the dungeon, be it from being poked with the God of Destruction's pickaxe or soaked with water. Like all Skelemen, Skelebonds have no diet and cannot reproduce, meaning that their HP acts as a kind of timer. Should its attack connect with a hero, all stat buffs, such as those from War Cry, will be negated. If a Skelebold perishes due to "hunger", it becomes a corpse, allowing it to be resurrected as a Skeleman or Skeleslave, or, in No Heroes Allowed!, become a Mandrake or Magic Mandrake.
If a Skelebond defeats a hero in No Heroes Allowed!, it will become a Wandering King.
The Skelebond is made a Pure Breed in No Heroes Allowed: No Puzzles Either!, acting as a "dud" monster obtained via the Mine. Unlike other Skelemen, it cannot be upgraded into a Wandering King.

Etymology
Skelebond is a portmanteau of "skeleton" and "vagabond". Vagabonds are individuals who move place to place without a specific home or means of support.
In the East Asian languages, the Skelebond is named "Wandering Bones", which is played upon in No Heroes Allowed! with the Wandering King.

Trivia
- The origin of the Skelebond was originally that of a hero being trapped in a Treasure Chest, but when the role of chests was superseded by fossils in No Heroes Allowed!, this was retconned to make them heroes from the ice age.
- Despite being capable of evolving into a Wandering King in No Heroes Allowed!, Skelebonds cannot evolve in No Heroes Allowed: No Puzzles Either!.
- The relation between the two is made clearer in the East Asian translations, where they use the same prefixes alluding to wandering, さまよう Samayō.
- Skelebonds are stated to be Pure Breeds in No Heroes Allowed: No Puzzles Either!, despite not being obtainable in any regular fashion previously. If a Skeleman is struck with holy water in No Heroes Allowed!, it's immediately destroyed. Additionally, they were introduced in What Did I Do to Deserve This, My Lord!?, prior to any Pure Breeds existing, which implies that this is a reclassification adjacent to that of Dvagons.
