‘Black-eye’
Black-eye is a notable non-player character (NPC) in Old School RuneScape who plays an essential role in the game’s quest content and lore. He is found in the Varrock area, specifically within the Varrock Sewers, located in the eastern part of the city.
Black-eye’s appearance is quite distinctive; he is a member of the Kerchief, a group known for their crime-related activities. Black-eye is characterized by his eye patch that obscures one of his eyes, giving him a rugged, pirate-like look. His clothing consists of dark attire appropriate for his shady dealings, which hints at his underworld associations.
Players will encounter Black-eye during the quest titled “Dwarf Cannon,” where he plays a pivotal role in providing players with crucial information necessary to progress. Interacting with Black-eye can yield important dialogue options that provide background on the quest’s storyline, revealing his knowledge of various characters and events related to the quest.
In terms of gameplay mechanics, Black-eye does not require any combat, as he is primarily an information source. Players may engage with him to learn more about the Dwarves, the lore involving the Ardougne area, and various other facets of the quest. His dialogue is often laced with humor and wit, embodying the cheekiness of the character type.
Aside from the quest-related tasks, Black-eye also serves as a minor source of flavor text for the game, offering insights into the gritty atmosphere of Varrock‘s underbelly. Players may appreciate the depth he adds to the game world, enhancing both the narrative experience and the immersive quality of Old School RuneScape.
Although Black-eye has a limited function within the game, his memorable persona and the role he plays in the “Dwarf Cannon” quest have made him a recognizable character amongst players and a staple of the questing experience in Old School RuneScape.
