Giant Skeleton is an undead creature in Baldur's Gate 3. Two of them can be summoned with

Retinue of the Vampire Lord at High Hall.

About Giant Skeletons edit

Giant Skeletons can only be encountered if the party let Astarion ascend and use Retinue of the Vampire Lord when reaching High Hall. They are weak melee fighters but can be useful at tanking some damage and attacks thanks to their high Armour Class and hitpoints.
