The Drunken Dwarf is a RuneScape random event. He will occasionally appear and talk to players. If the player responded, the dwarf would give them a kebab and a beer. If the player ignored him, he would throw rocks at the player which hit a max of 2 damage, though capable of hitting through even the Protect from Missiles prayer. He would not stop unless the player talked to him. It was widely disputed that this random event is unfair, because if the player lagged, he/she will most likely die. After they removed the random event, he now wanders the world giving kebabs and beer to anyone who talks to him, then teleporting away to other places. However, if the player is out of inventory space upon talking to him, the dwarf would stay until his goods is given out. See locations for where he has been spotted.
The drunken dwarf is alluded to in the Forgettable Tale of a Drunken Dwarf quest. After the quest, when the dwarf visits you he will speak of your 'Kebab stories' from the end of the quest.
Quotes:
- Dun ignore your matey!
- I hates you [insert players name]!
- Aww comeon, talk to ikle me [insert players name]!
If the player died, the Dwarf would exclaim:
- Aw me is all alone...
And he will disappear.
[edit] Backstory
During the course of The Rise of the Red Axe, the player meets the brother or cousin of the drunken dwarf that travels.
The Drunken Dwarf has been seen harassing the Wise Old Man outside of the Pyramid Plunder pyramid (where he was subsequently vaporized by the Wise Old Man).
Also during the My Arm's Big Adventure quest the Drunken Dwarf will wander too close to the goutweed that My Arm is attempting to grow and will be thrown off a mountain. A nameless newborn troll will then attempt to eat his leg earning the name Drunken dwarf's leg.
[edit] Trivia
- If the Drunken Dwarf killed the player near their respawn point, such as Lumbridge, he would continue to attack them once they respawn.
- If the player speaks to a dwarf in Keldagrim named Kjut, he will complain that a certain drunken dwarf keeps on harassing them. Kjut will then bring up a dwarf who always seems to disappear with his kebabs.
- When the Drunken Dwarf appeared the player would hear a unique whistling sound. This was an easy way to notice a Drunken Dwarf immediately if the player was doing a task that doesn't require full attention such as Woodcutting or Fishing.
