Skeletron Hand

The Skeletron Hand is a Hook that allows the player to latch onto two surfaces at a time. It is dropped by Skeletron.

Compared to the Ivy Whip:
 * The Ivy Whip can grapple up to three surfaces at a time, the Skeletron Hand up to two. Firing the third hook will automatically detach the first.
 * The Skeletron Hand has a shorter reach than the Ivy Whip by about 2 tile lengths.

Compared to the Dual Hook:
 * The Dual Hook can only grapple up to one surface at a time, but detaches when the second hook hits a wall, not when it is fired.
 * The Skeletron Hand has a shorter reach than the Dual Hook by about 7 tile lengths.
 * The Dual Hook emits a faint light, unlike the Skeletron hand.
 * The Dual Hook can be fired twice in quick succesion, which is useful if you're falling and miss the first time.
