Scorpion Catcher/Transcript

Starting out

 * Thormac: Hello I am Thormac the Sorcerer, I don't suppose you could be of assistance to me?
 * Player: What do you need assistance with?
 * Thormac: I've lost my pet scorpions. They're lesser Kharid scorpions, a very rare breed. I left their cage door open, now I don't know where they've gone. There's three of them, and they're quick little beasties. They're all over Runescape.
 * Player: So how would I go about catching them then?
 * Thormac: Well I have a scorpion cage here which you can use to catch them in.
 * Player: What's in it for me?
 * Thormac: Well I suppose I can aid you with my skills as a staff sorcerer. Most battlestaffs around here are a bit puny. I can beef them up for you a bit.
 * Thormac: If you go up to the village of Seers, to the North of here, one of them will be able to tell you where the scorpions are now.

The Seer

 * Seer: Many greetings.
 * Player: Your friend Thormac sent me to speak to you.
 * Seer: What does the old fellow want?
 * Player: He's lost his valuable lesser Kharid scorpions.
 * Seer: Well you have come to the right place. I am a master of animal detection. Let me look into my looking glass.
 * Player: I need to locate some scorpions.
 * Seer: Well you have come to the right place. I am a master of animal detection. Do you need to locate any particular scorpion? Scorpions are a creature somewhat in abundance.
 * Player: I'm looking for some lesser Kharid scorpions. They belong to Thormac the sorcerer.
 * Seer: Let me look into my looking glass.
 * The seer produces a small mirror
 * The seer gazes into the mirror
 * The seer smoothes his hair with his hand
 * Seer: I can see a scorpion that you seek. It resides in a dark place, between a lake and a holy island. There by the entrance shall you find it. So close and yet so far.
 * Player: That was cryptic. Can't you just tell me where it is?
 * Seer: Where would be the fun in that?

More riddles

 * Player: Hi, I've retrieved the first scorpion.
 * Seer: Well, I've checked my looking glass. The second Kharid Scorpion has been spirited away by a brute of a man. He runs a shop in a village two canoe trips from Lumbridge. That's all I can tell you about that scorpion.
 * Player: Any more scorpions?
 * Seer: It's good that you should ask. I have information on the last scorpion for you. It seems to be in some sort of upstairs room. There's some brown clothing lying on a table nearby.
 * Player: Oh come on now! Brown clothing? That's not a clue!
 * Seer: Alright alright! The clothing is adorned with a golden four-pointed star. Happy now?
 * Player: Not really.
 * Seer: Fine! You should go to where monks reside.
 * Player: Up a tree?
 * Seer: MONKS! NOT MONKEYS!!!!

Peska

 * Player: I've heard you have a small scorpion in your possession.
 * Peska: Now, how could you know about that, I wonder. Mind you, I don't have it anymore. I gave it as a present to my brother Ivor when I visited our outpost in the west. Well, actually I hid it in his room so it would nip him. It was a bit of a surprise gift.
 * Player: So where's this outpost?
 * Peska: It's a fair old trek to the west, across the White Wolf Mountains. Then head west, north-west until you see the axes and horned helmets.
 * Player: Thanks for the information.
 * Peska: No problem! Tell Ivor I said hi!

Finishing

 * Thormac: How goes your quest?
 * Player: I have retrieved all your scorpions.
 * Thormac: Aha, my little scorpions home at last!


 * Thormac: Thank you for rescuing my scorpions.
 * Player: You said you'd enchant my battlestaff for me.
 * Thormac: Yes, although it'll cost you 40,000 coins for the materials. What kind of staff did you want enchanting?
