Penguin (race)

The Penguin (Spheniscidae Calidus) is an NPC that is said to be Andrew Gower's favourite animal[citation needed], revered in a manner similar to Bob the Jagex Cat. Penguins are innocuous and weak creatures found in the Ardougne Zoo and north of Miscellania, but two intelligent penguins can be found wearing a sheep costume in Lumbridge. The Cold War quest heavily involves penguins. Apparently, penguins are smarter than they appear. Even Juna warns a player not to underestimate them.

They have some roles in the minigame Distractions and diversions Many RuneScape players even think that there may be an upcoming update in which penguins attack all of RuneScape in an attempt to take over the realm of Gielinor; this plan is revealed during the Cold War quest.
