Scorpion Catcher Quest
 

Thormac has lost his rare lesser kharid scorpions after leaving their cage door open. These scorpions have hidden in areas that are rather difficult to get into. You will have to overcome various challenges (and drink a lot of beer) to get all the scorpions back If you manage to help him Thormac will improve your battle staffs.

Start point: Sorcerer's tower
Speak to: Thormac the sorcerer
Mission length: Long
Minimum requirements: level 31 prayer
Go deep into the members dungeon
Members only: Yes

Instructions:

  1. Speak to Thormac the sorcerer. He tells you that he has lost his three scorpions and wishes for you to find them. He suggests that you go to speak to the Seer in Seers village since he might be able to help you find out where they are. You must do them in this order:

First scorpion:

  1. The Seer will tell you that the scorpion is between black demons and poison spiders. It is in the member's dungeon (South of Taverly).

     
  2. (Bring cure poison potion, anti dragon breath shield, and maybe some teleport runes) When you first enter the dungeon, you are able to see the scorpion, just past the west wall. Go deep into the dungeon. Once you get to the Poison Scorpions, stop. If you have a dusty key, skip step 3. If you don't, here are the instructions:

     
  3. Now go south through a little walkway and go past the Black Knights (level 46). If you've gone far enough south you will be in a room with a blue carpet. Go west now and go into the room with the Adventurer. Talk to him and get a dusty key. Now head north until you get back to the Poison Scorpions.

     
  4. Go across the bridge, past Lesser Demons and use your dusty key on the door to the Blue Dragon room. Try to stay to the south wall if you do not wish to be attacked by a level 105 dragon! You will need to pass the level 156 Black Demons. Now keep going around and you will be with some Poison Spiders (level 63). Check the wall for an 'odd-looking wall' and push it. Capture the scorpion with the cage.

     
  5. Either teleport out of there (hopefully you brought the runes required) or go back the way you came.

Second scorpion:

  1. Bring about 2000 coins. Go back and speak to the Seer again. He will tell you that the second scorpion is in a Barbarous Village, or something like that. It's in the barbarian outpost. Go there and talk to the guard. He'll give you a barcrawl card that must be signed by all 6 bars on the list. They are: Jolly Boar Inn, Blue Moon Inn, The Rising Sun, Dead Man's Chest, The Forester's Arms and the Rusty Anchor. These are the bars in Seers Village, Falador, Varrock, northeast of Varrock, Port Sarim and Brimhaven.

     
  2. Just go to each bar and say that you're doing the Alfred Grimhand barcrawl, and they'll give you a drink at your expense. Once done, go back to the barbarian outpost and he'll let you in and the scorpion is in the room right there.

Third scorpion:

  1. This is where you need level 31 prayer. Go back to the Seer again and he will tell you that the third scorpion is somewhere where there are brown robes on the floor. He means the Monastery northeast of Falador.

     
  2. Go upstairs in the Monastery and you will see the scorpion running around. Catch him in the cage.

Finishing the Quest: Go back to Thormac the sorcerer and he will reward you. He will now enchant Battle staffs for you.
