The skeleton king makes three attacks with his staff.
Melee Weapon Attack: +17 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (2d6 + 6) bludgeoning damage. Target must make DC 21 Constitution saving throw or take an extra 21 (6d6) necrotic damage, taking half as much damage on a successful one.
The skeleton king can summon 1d12 skeletons twice a day and 1d6 minotaur skeletons once a day. They appear in unoccupied spaces within 60 feet of the skeleton king.
The skeleton king fixes his evil smile on one creature he can see within 30 ft. of him. The target must make a successful DC 21 Wisdom saving throw against this magic or become charmed for 1 minute.
