Evil Chicken

The Evil Chicken is a quest monster in Recipe for Disaster and a random event that retired on Feb. 25 2009. The random event could occur at any time, during any action, even while standing around or in combat. It was one of only two hostile random events that were not skill related, the other one being the Swarm (also retired). An Evil Chicken random event is rumoured to have occured and attacked a player at the Fist of Guthix minigame on Thursday 5 March 2009.

The Evil Chicken attacks with magic and so cannot be hidden from, and may inflict a hit or two as the player runs away. Using the Protect from Magic prayer nullifies the chicken's attack, and it can be safely dealt with.

The Evil Chicken hits a maximum of 5 damage, at any level. Despite its low maximum hit, it has high accuracy regardless of player's defence, though it sometimes misses. The Evil Chicken cannot move. If you try to step on it, it will say "Bwaark! Get off of me!" and your character will take damage and automatically step one square away from the chicken.

Recipe for disaster
The Evil Chicken is part of the Recipe for Disaster: Sir Amik Varze subquest during which you must kill it. It is always slightly stronger than its random event version (see below), so the randon event chicken would have been level 79, you will get attacked by a level 81 chicken. The highest level it can reach is 159. A player will have access to the Evil Chicken's Lair for Black dragons and mining ores after they defeat the Evil Chicken, but the bird itself will not appear.

The Wise Old Man of Draynor Village has a book on the origin of the Evil Chicken, titled "Book on chickens".



Random event


As a random event its level depended upon the player's level, with a maximum level of 159. Many lower levels could still kill it.



The Evil Chicken said things like:
 * "Bwuk bwuk bwuk".
 * "Flee from me, (player's name)!"
 * "Begone, (player's name)!"
 * "MUAHAHAHAHAAA!" I love your nuts! Eat my poop! My caca is bigger than yours!

You could only avoid its attack by running away or staying behind a solid wall, not behind a obstacle. When a player runs far enough, a message appeared in the chatbox reading "The Evil Chicken realises you're out of range and vanishes." If a player was not out of range but nonetheless could not be attacked by the chicken, after approximately a minute a message appeared with "The Evil Chicken gets bored and vanishes." Through a glitch, it was possible to move up or down levels in a building and then return to the level the evil chicken is on without being attacked.want to lick my toenails after playing toe butt fart for 18 hours add me on runescape my name is tyman50cent. lawlawlawlawl i pawn u lololol

Drops


Pile containing:
 * Raw chicken
 * Feathers (more than a normal chicken, from 32 to 750 feathers)
 * Bones
 * Evil Chicken's egg (quest only)

The Evil Chicken used to drop an egg upon killing it. However it was probably removed to avoid confusion with the Evil Chicken's egg in the Recipe for Disaster quest.penis my penis my penis my penis is eating the evil chicken!!! omg help me pl0x

Trivia

 * The Evil Chicken has the lowest wander range of any monster, only 1 square (this means he cannot move at all).
 * As long as you're wearing a ring of life, you should be safe from being killed by the Evil Chicken, seeing as it most likely hits lower than 10% of your maximum hitpoints.
 * The Evil Chicken's attacks are magic. Many players prefer to use the 'Protect from Magic' prayer when fighting to avoid taking damage for most of the fight.
 * If you walk on the Evil Chicken it will shove you away, dealing up to 4 damage. It will say something such as "Get off of me". If the random event chicken appeared in front of a furnace, a player could step on it for a moment by clicking the furnace, although the chicken would finally expel the player. This could have been done multiple times but the occurrence was very rare.
 * According to Evil Bob, in the parallel world of ScapeRune there is a "cheery old chicken" instead of an evil chicken.
 * Sometimes the Evil Chicken random event would glitch and stay in one place, not attacking anything.
 * If you were under water when the Evil Chicken attacked, it will be wearing scuba gear and a fishbowl with air bubbles coming out, just like you.
 * Although the tested max hit of the level 159 evil chicken was only 5, the Monster Examine on the random event one stated 21.
 * The random event appeared to be more common when fighting Cockroach soldiers in the Stronghold of Player Safety and fighting Experiments in the Experiment cave.
 * It is possible the Evil Chicken is a reference to an "evil" chicken from Terry Goodkind's novel the "Soul of the Fire" (1999) from the "Sword of Truth" series. In the book a chicken is possessed and attacks several people, even killing one.
