Bowless skeletons

There should be a very small chance of a skeleton without a bow to spawn instead of a regular skeleton. It acts the same as a zombie, but will not target villagers. (Also could pick up a dropped bow to become a regular skeleton)

    bowless skeletons also shouldn't drop a bow or arrows they should only drop bones, unless they picked up a bow.

    what if zombies could use bows and skeleton could use swords.
    the big difference is what they drop, so zombies can drop more items still but skeletons only drop bones.

    they should also drop Bones more rarely because it's easier to fight a skeleton without a bow

    maybe their punches deal more base damage than a zombie
