Not to be confused with the Wise Old Man, Odd Old Man, Mysterious Old Man or the Strange Old Man.
The Weird Old Man is a man gone insane outside the Kalphite Lair. His origins are unknown, but he found the Kalphites and warns adventurers of the dangers he encountered.
If the player has already gone into the Kalphite hive, he will simply say "No thanks, I don't want any" when spoken to.
With the release of the Desert Tasks, after a player has completed all tasks in this area, they can collect 20, 30 or 40 noted Potato Cacti once per day (20 with Desert amulet 2, 30 for Desert amulet 3) and 40 with Desert amulet 4.
Trivia
Edit
- His words "The horror! The horror!" are a reference to Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness.
- When asking the natural historian in the Varrock museum about kalphites, it is heavily implied that the weird old man's name is Iqbar Ali-Abdula.
