[edit] Clarence the wizard
Before the events of the Hand in the Sand quest, he had a wizard apprentice called Clarence, although he hadn't been seen lately, but Zavistic didn't really worry about that. One day, Bert found a mysterious, severed Hand in the Sand pit. He got so scared that he asked the player to investigate the matter and see how it got there. After showing the Sandy hand to the Guard Captain and Zavistic, the latter realises that in fact the hand belongs to his student. Later, the mystery extends more as the player finds out that Bert had recently been working longer hours for Sandy, owner of Sandy Sand Co., for the same pay, upon comparing the work rotas that were in the hands of Bert and Sandy's office. Not only that, but when the player returned to Bert to ask him about that, it was revealed that Clarence had something to do with Bert, who had recently found a strange scroll in his house, which, according to Zavistic, was a mind altering spell scroll. Upon all the evidence, he asks the player to interrogate Sandy by means of a Truth serum (which is concocted with the help of Betty) mixed in his coffee and a Magical orb that will record the interrogation. In the end, it was revealed that Sandy had paid Clarence to cast a mind-altering spell on Bert, so he wouldn't realise he was working extra hours for the same pay, and then killed Clarence so he wouldn't have to pay him. To further hide the evidence, he cut Clarence's dead body in several parts, which he sent hidden in sand to the various Sandpits all around Gielinor. His right hand ended up in Bert's sandpit in Yanille, and his head ended up in Mazion's sandpit in Entrana. The rest of Clarence's body parts were later moved to the Jade vine maze in the Karamja jungle following the release of a later quest, after which players had to retrieve the parts by killing things within the maze found during the quest.
[edit] Trivia
- When he is summoned by a player via the bell outside the Wizards' Guild, the Zavistic Rarve that appears before the player is a duplicate of Zavistic, the original still clearly visible inside the tower.
