Minor Deities

Zaros: A god of unknown alignment worshipped in the Second Age. During that time his followers had a magnificent and highly magical empire in northeast Geilinor. I suspect that he was the god of magic, since his followers had access to such forces three ages before the official discovery of the Rune Essence, but this cannot yet be confirmed. His champion, and possibly half-mortal son, was Azzanadra. During the Third Age the empire was utterly destroyed by Saradomin and Zamorak, who feared and envied Zaros's power. Some remains can be found but most were buried deep beneath the earth. Bob the Cat is also rumored to be Zaros. If you wish to take a historical journey, you may attempt the Digsite Quest, or visit such places as the Edgeville Dungeon, the ruins in the Wilderness, and even the Wilderness Agility Course.
