Daemonheim

Daemonheim (pronounced "Dee-mun-hime" ) is a place of treasures, fierce battles and bitter defeats. It is a castle located on an icy peninsula in the eastern Wilderness, though it does not actually count as Wilderness. It is currently the only place where a player can train the Dungeoneering skill.

Most of the history of Daemonheim is told through the Chronicles of Bilrach which are discovered as a player trains the Dungeoneering skill. Currently, an army of Fremenniks have set up a campsite in the area to guard what currently is an unknown threat.

One cannot bring items into the castle so it is necessary to have enough room in the bank to deposit items. Players can form a raiding party for dungeoneering here by entering the free-for-all room and be matched with a party, or using the ring of kinship to make a party of the player's choice. It is also possible to go alone.

Interestingly, it is possible to get the message that begins the Regicide quest here, even though items are not supposed to be brought in from the surface. It is unknown whether or not the scroll is kept upon leaving the dungeon.

Development History
''It has been suggested that this section be moved back to "Wilderness Castle". Discuss your thoughts and opinions on this page.''

On 22 February 2010, exactly thirty days after the Strange Power, Daemonheim was suddenly released. At the time, it was known to players as the Wilderness Castle. Curious players tried to get in, but were unable to as the castle was blocked off by the Fremennik guards named Hilda and Torsteg. Hilda mentions that Daemonheim was the source of the strange power and have blocked it off to contain an unknown threat. Some players, however, attempt to view it using the Orb of Oculus and found some tents and a ruined castle.

All of the confusion was cleared up on 12 April 2010, when Dungeoneering was finally released. However, the whereabouts of Hilda and Torsteg are currently unknown as they no longer guard the entrance to Daemonheim. Mod Mark has hinted that a quest involving the two may be released in the future.

Trivia

 * The Strange power was also a teaser for the Dungeoneering skill though the exact cause of the event is still unknown.Ghostly figure.PNG
 * The Seers have simply located the source to be at Daemonheim.
 * Prior to the release of the Dungeoneering skill, Daemonheim was not labelled on the map nor did it have icons.
 * Ghostly figures can be seen walking all across Daemonheim. They sometimes attack you. They cannot be examined nor do they appear on the minimap.
 * As read in the Chronicles, the tunnels seem to have been constructed by Bilrach the Mahjarrat.
 * Unlike other chickens, the chickens in Daemonheim cannot be attacked and when examined it says "Who are you calling chicken?".
 * There are rooks scattered around Daemonheim that cannot be attacked, and when examined it says "You're being watched." This is most likely a reference to the book "The Alchemyst", when Dr. John Dee uses magic on rooks to look through their eyes.
 * On the 1st floor of the Castle, a statue of a Dragonkin watches over the stairs.Daemonheim1.png.]]
 * The name Daemonheim is a contraction of the words "Daemon", meaning "demon", and "Heim", which is German for "home". So Daemonheim means "home of the demons".
 * Contrarily, Thok, Master of Dungeoneering says that Daemonheim means "Demon Halls".
 * One of the food types, Heim Crab, is probably named after Daemonheim, as it's the only place where you can find it.
 * There is currently a glitch where on the second floor, all of the tinderboxes disappear.
 * Revenants had been spotted wandering into the area before Daemonheim's official release.
 * This probably meant that Daemonheim used to count as Wilderness.
 * When Daemonheim was released as a teaser, it was the first time that free players could talk to warriors from the Fremennik Province.
 * Mod Mark H had written a suggestion in the forums known as Deepstone Keep which led many players to believe Daemonheim was just that, though he confirmed otherwise. However, many aspects of the gameplay are quite similar to it.
 * In the Brazilian Portuguese version of Runescape, Daemonheim is named Kalaboss, because Daemonheim is a very difficult word to pronounce in Portuguese. Kalaboss is derived from the Portuguese word "Calabouço" which means Dungeon.
 * When talking to the Dungeoneering tutor outside of Daemonheim, there was once a typo that said "in our out" instead of "in or out".
 * Ice trolls and Thrower trolls in Daemonheim are currently the only trolls, together with Easta Buni and undead trolls, that have the updated look.
 * This is the same with the Tutorial dragon from Unstable Foundations and the Daemonheim Frost dragon, Green Dragon and Iron Dragon.
 * It is confirmed in the Chronicles of Bilrach that this is actually a Dragonkin Castle where the Stone of Jas used to be.
 * Niflheim may be related to Daemonheim, in some way, as Niflheim has the same suffix as Daemonheim.
