Animate Dead Suggestions:
-In D&D (yes I am that nerd) Animate Dead can animate a fairly substantial number of bodies at once. Perhaps make it so every dead body and possibly dead critter in a decent area gets reanimated. Would require some prep but it could be a fairly nice ace-in-the-hole for a wizard after a bloody battle, or a wizard who's okay pulling the Slasher-villain trick of taking bodies with them and stashing them someplace.
-Give skeletons a chance of inflicting a non-contagious but serious disease on hit (grave fever? MRSA?). They are, after all, dead bodies. And dead bodies tend to get pretty nasty.
-Skeletons attack by clubbing you with their hands, right? Well what if they clawed you, giving you temporarily bleeding wounds until you could heal yourself? Or if they broke off pieces of their bones into you like bullets and shrapnel, requiring impromptu surgery?
-Give Skeletons the random talking/sound that Skullbots get. Some of you might choose the spell just to annoy people with it.
-If not implementing regeneration, perhaps lower the cooldown on Animate Dead and allow the spell to reanimate any dead skeletons the crew has already killed?
