Dark Warriors are found in the Dark Warriors' Fortress, which is a multi-combat castle in level 12 to 16 Wilderness north-west of Edgeville. The Dark Warriors are inside the castle which is surrounded by a moat. These NPCs usually are more annoying than an actual threat to players, and have higher defence than their combat level suggests. Dark Warriors are known to have the unique, but occasional drop of black maces and black helms. Leaving the fortress, logging into a different world or being taken away by a random event will cause them to be aggressive again. They are aggressive, regardless of a player's level, and the castle is a multi-combat zone.

Dark Warriors have been in their castle in the Wilderness since Runescape Classic, yet there has been no quest objective involving them as of yet.

TriviaEdit

• Oddly enough, the Dark Warriors still have not had a graphical update with their armour unlike the Black Knights. They seem to be equipped with a dirty version of an Iron helm, Iron platebody, Iron platelegs, and Leather gloves and boots.
