Sedridor is the head wizard and chief of research in the Wizard's Tower, having struggled to rediscover the lost knowledge of runestones after the destruction of the Tower by Zamorakian mages decades past, having at last recently succeeded largely due to the efforts of a human adventurer who brought him an Air talisman from Lumbridge's Duke Horacio, who knows of Sedridor and his vast lore well enough to send it to him for examination. He is located in the tower's basement. You are required to talk to him twice during the Rune Mysteries quest. After the said quest, you can use him to teleport to the rune essence mine, where you can mine rune or pure essence. He is seldom visited for this, because he is so far away from a bank. Sedridor has conducted extensive research on runes and the secrets of crafting runestones, eventually combining his research with that of Aubury's rune knowledge to unlock the secrets of the Air talisman, thus considerably increasing the Wizards' supply of runes and leading to the opening of a Guild.
He bears an ordinary wooden Staff, which he presumably uses to cast spells through, but claims he has "great powers" that he uses to teleport back the research packet "without too much effort" if the player should lose it. Sedridor also frequently displays his abilities of Tele-othering across vast distances to the hidden Rune Essence Mine, using the same spell Aubury uses (Senventior Disthine Molenko!), all the way to the ice fields of the north, closed off from access by anything other than magical means. He also possesses reasonable "mental powers" which enable him to know someone's name in seconds, as he demonstrates should you not trust him to be the Head Wizard of the Tower initially during Rune Mysteries.
He has a map in his room which can show you the location of the Runecrafting altars if you use a talisman on it.
Sedridor has a brother, another wizard who lives to the room next to his, by the name of Isidor, who, despite interest in portals, is often forgetful, and can teleport players to the Land of Snow.
During Rune Mechanics Wizard Shug reveals that it was originally Sedridor's idea to rebuild the Mage Training Arena. It is also revealed that Sedridor is a heavy drinker of Wizard Mind Bombs, having drinking habits Shug compares to a Fremennik. Sedridor originally had the idea to rebuild the arena during one of his binges after one of his apprentices had killed himself using magic, therefore he wanted to make magic training safer.
When talked to before starting the Rune Mysteries quest, if you continue through the entire conversation, he will say "Perhaps I will see you later, *insert user name here*", your character will be shocked and ask how he knows your name, replying "Well, I AM the head wizard.", which might be a reference to Harry Potter.
