What about the skel dragon variants? Shouldn't they be listed too? (No, the bone dragon is not meant, but e.g. iron dragon skeletons.) Neither in the List nor in the species entries are those derivated dragon forms mentioned. There should be some info. Well, more than resistant to cold & posion anf cannot regenerate.

See derived undead. There's no point listing them here, because then we'd pretty much have to put it for all the "list of x" articles that concern zombifiable monsters. Ideally, we should actually create redirects to that article (or maybe the article for the relevant type of undead) for all possible combinations, but that would take forever to do by hand - though I'm guessing one of the more bot-savvy people here might be able to automate it.
As a sidenote, bone dragons actually used to be called skeletal dragons, and have a Z glyph. So if you think it's confusing now... Imagine finding out the hard way that a skeletal dragon is much more dangerous than a dragon skeleton. Oh also, undead generally have more HP than their living counterparts, not less. -Ion frigate 09:17, 24 February 2013 (CET)
