Skulduggery Pleasant is a tall skeleton, who has a skull for a face.   Hed has no eyes – just two sockets where his eyes should be.   He covers these up by wearing sunglasses which perch on the bony part above the triangular hole where his nose once was.  A lack of lips makes him look as though he is grinning all the time- very sinister.  A long black leather coat conceals long bony arms and knonbbly fingers which extend from the bottom of his sleeves.   For practical reasons he wears black leather cowboy boots which are very sturdy which is useful when fighting crime.  A cowboy hat studded with silver sits atop his perfectly rounded head.  He is a very mysterious and scary looking character.
