Talking Skull

A talking skull is a skull, typically found scavenging for bones to eat in graveyards.

Talking skulls live on a diet of bones. They are somewhat intelligent. While a talking skull doesn't have the memories or personality of its former owner, it can speak the languages its owner possessed in life, as well as learning new ones.
