Duke Horacio is the Duke of the City of Lumbridge, including the town and its surrounding area. He inherited his position from his father, and is a direct male descendant of the first Duke, Polonius. His duties include the day-to-day managing of Lumbridge and the organisation of its guards. He is also a member of the Lumbridge Secret Council. Horacio is also "a good friend" of Misthalin's ruler, King Roald, according to the Lumbridge Sage, Phileas.
There are several quests involving Horacio. He also gives away the anti-dragon shield to those that have started the non-member quest, Dragon Slayer.
