In Carnillean Rising, the very idea of a quest is turned upside down and shaken about like a badly mixed potion. You see, Sir Ceril Carnillean is very disappointed in his young son, and he wants you to turn him into a brave, handsome and daring adventurer, just like you. Ceril’s really proud of a quest that he has written for Philipe, and he needs you to make it happen. After all, who knows more about clambering over obstacles, disarming traps, rescuing prisoners and saving the day than you, the greatest hero that RuneScape will ever see? Of course, it can’t be anything as simple as chasing sheep around a field, or rounding up a few imps to kill for beads. In this – our latest fully voiced piece of content, you’ll need to find actors to play the characters according to Ceril’s quest specification, tie up the damsel in distress and set up the whole experience in the sewers beneath the Carnillean family mansion.

In this quest, the adventurer’s destiny is in your hands. Can you deal with Philipe’s arrogance and lack of discipline, or will you feed him to the wolves like the nubcake he is? Can you coax him into facing down a dragon? Can you make him wear a dress? This is a rib-tickling, Intermediate-level quest with skill requirements of 33 Thieving and 31 Construction, and a quest point requirement of 50. As well as a healthy, summery dollop of XP sauce, you’ll get your own, personal treasure chest that you can use to set up and run treasure hunts for your friends. You’ll also get access to a bunch of other rewards if you’re an experienced player.

It’s fair to say that some of the best friends I have made in RuneScape were found deep underground or high up in desolate towers while I was training my Slayer skill. Friends who slay together, stay together, but it’s also annoying when people appear and camp out at the very spot you had earmarked for your next few hundred Slayer kills. What if you could be social and also complete your Slayer task, buddying up with another player to make kills together?
