A simple skeleton with large jug of alchemist's fire inside of its chest cavity that is hidden by an old breast plate or some other form of clothing or cover. The jug's explosion is set off by damage to the skeleton exceeding 10 points (5 if bludgeoning or fire). (Players can see the the jug with a DC20 perception check, or notice the skeletons chest bulging under the cover with a DC15 perception check.
The explosion covers a 10 foot radius centered on skeleton for 3d4 damage from the initial explosion (skeleton immediately dies) or half as much on a successful DC13 dex save. Creatures that fail the save also take 1d4 fire damage at the start of each of their subsequent turns until they use an action to wither extinguish the flames with a DC10 dex check, or find some other way to douse the flames.
Shortsword. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d6 + 2) piercing damage.
Shortbow. Ranged Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, range 80/320 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d6 + 2) piercing damage.
Immediately upon taking sufficient damage (5 fire or bludgeoning damage, or 10 of any other form of damage) the jug inside the skeleton explodes with the oily substance within. The explosion covers a 10 foot radius centered on skeleton for 3d4 damage from the initial explosion (skeleton immediately dies) or half as much on a successful DC13 dex save. Creatures that fail the save also take 1d4 fire damage at the start of each of their subsequent turns until they use an action to wither extinguish the flames with a DC10 dex check, or find some other way to douse the flames.
