Bone
The joints inside a skinned character. Click one in the viewport and turn it to pose an arm, a tail or a jaw, and the mesh bends with it.
A Bone sits under a SkinnedMeshPart or another Bone, and its CFrame is in studs relative to that parent. Bones are made when the part's Mesh is set in Properties, and the mesh's joints bind to them by name. Transform is the pose on top of that rest CFrame; a pose you make is saved, unlike Roblox. A selected Bone is posed with the gizmos, G and R; hold Alt as you start to move its rest instead.
