Strongbones

Strongbones is the last goblin priest to battle in the Land of the Goblins quest as well as the Goblin High Priest miniquest. He is also the most intelligent of the 5 High Goblin Priests.

Habitat

 * The crypt inside the Goblin Temple, which itself is beneath the Goblin cave.



Dialogue
After defeating him, Strongbones will say:


 * Strongbones: You have proved yourself the stronger, human. Ask your questions.
 * Player: Where is Yu'biusk?
 * Strongbones: Yu'biusk is not a place on RuneScape. It is another plane of existence. No goblin alive today has ever been there. It is many millennia since the Big High War God brought our ancestors from Yu'biusk, but the call to that plane is still strong in us. If the barriers between the planes were ever to be broken, goblin blood would call out to open a portal to Yu'biusk.
 * Player: What was your predecessor's name?
 * Strongbones: His name is not important. He is not buried here. Before my time, priests were cremated and their ashes scattered to the winds. You cannot talk to him.
 * Player: Why did you attack me?
 * Strongbones: You are a human, not one of the children of the Big High War God. For this reason you had to prove yourself in combat before I could answer you.
 * Player: What's it like being dead?
 * Strongbones:I cannot tell you. I no longer remember what it is like to be alive.
 * Player: Goodbye.
 * Strongbones: Goodbye, human. I am sure that the Chosen Commander will find what she is looking for when you bring her to Yu'biusk.

Trivia

 * He seems to know that Chosen Commander is a female, although the goblin prophet Hopespear doesn't know it.
 * The fact that he speaks perfect English means that Goblins used to be a highly intelligent race, comparable to humans and other humanoid beings such as Gnomes or Dwarves. It is the long term usage in battle and lack of education that reduced the species as a whole to become creatures of low intelligence.
