Black candle



A Black candle is a Firemaking item which is used during the Merlin's Crystal quest. A player gets one from the Catherby candle maker by trading a Bucket of wax to him. Players can get some wax from the beehive south-west of Catherby if they spray the beehive with insect repellent and use a bucket on it. A player may give the candle maker more than one bucket of wax to get more than one black candle. The option to make black candles will not be available after completion of the quest.

Trivia

 * Black candles are considered to be unlucky by the candle maker.
 * After the quest it is possible to buy black candles from the candle maker for 3 coins each, as he claims that the player "started a trend" with the black candles, and has begun selling them, despite being considered unlucky.
