Barrows brothers follow saradomin?
I really doubt that they follow saradomin. Sleepydragn1 21:48, 24 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Read the on-site material: Basically they followed Saradomin when they were alive. They're assumed to be Zamorakian now. Chaoticar 09:14, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

actually, most people think they follow zaros, after their death, and saradomin before.

As said above it's commonly thought that Sliske gave the Barrows brothers their armor and now uses them to serve Zaros as proven in The Temple at Senntisten. Zaros will rise. Power to the Great Lord! 22:31, September 11, 2010 (UTC)

The barrows brothers made a deal with sliske. What they got in return was strength and power and the price to pay was to worship zaros after the deal expired and be resurrected as living beings when zaros returns.

Saradomin is a Mahjarrat??
Does anyone know where this info came from? Wouln't this mean that he was from the same tribe as Zamorak? Sir Lenehan 08:51, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't know where it came from. 09:06, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Currently it's no more than rumour and conjecture, as I don't think the link has ever been mentioned in-game or in on-site material. Chaoticar 09:11, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That might have been started by me, and as far as Mod Matt P (I think thats what his name was) says, its the truth, back when I played Runescape I was really into Runescapian theology and I had nice long discussions with the guy, go ask him yourself tell him felinoel sent you, I wonder if he remembers felinoel ~ (Talk) 18:46, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Is there at all a lot known where teh Gods came from? I don't think so. I mean is Seren, for example in of her kind, like Guthix, or Zaros. We know Zamorak is a member of a species/tribe, but do other gods have something like family (is it genertic family, or allignment based?)? Or are they more like single enteties? Where would this place Sara - and his relationship to Armadyl (who were friends of somesort)?

Brother tobi? What?
Some random IP added that name to list of followers, and it sounds like a joke. But since I am not sure I am asking if anyone really knows for sure. SO we can delete it if needed or make Brother Tobis page if hes real--Degenret01 09:36, 7 May 2008 (UTC).
 * I agree. Brother Tobi did exist, but doesn't seem to now. But when it did, it was completely empty. Either this gets filled out, or he is replaced in the list by someone more deserving. let me think:


 * Safalaan - Leader of the Myreque in Meiyerditch. A good addition, especially since Legacy of Seergaze.
 * Veliaf Hurtz - Leader of the Myreque in Burgh de Rott.
 * Sir Tiffy Cashien - Head of Recruitment for the Temple Knights.
 * Sir Amik Varze - Leader of the White Knights and acting King of Asgarnia.

Brother Tobi, as far as I know, either doesn't exist, or is a minor character. Gaz Lloyd 18:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Or they could all be added to the list and Tobi could stay. There's not a limit to the list or anything. 18:42, 30 May 2008 (UTC)


 * The list should not have more than one or two of them added, since it is a list of some notable saradomists, not of all saradomists. Since you are so keen on keeping this "Brother Tobi" you should create the page and fill it out. Until then, I vote that Tobi should be removed, at least until there is some information making him a notable saradomist on his page. Gaz Lloyd 19:05, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Who is this "brother tobi" I have done all the myreque quests and searched rather a lot of runescape. Throughout my experiences I cannot seem to remember that name. I don't think he is really necessary to speak about, after all I don't believe he is involved with any quests either. 03:03, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I have scanned the web and there is no info about "Brother Tobi" except a user on this wiki and Sal's realm with that name. I'll remove it now because even if he is real, he is definitely not notable. Cheers, 10:10, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Colour
white is the colour of Guthix isn't it? --194.63.138.187 09:16, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
 * No, Guthix's colour is green/teal, as shown by the Guthix cape and Book of balance. Saradomin is white/blue. 09:46, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

But his followers wear white, why can't it also be white? felinoel ~ (Talk) 18:47, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Followers
What no Camelot? I always said that they were Christian since they were King Arthur and his knights of course, I always said that the backwards Saradomin alter in the Camelot castle is proof enough, although not too many people were fond of that so I allowed myself to be censored and called them Saradominists, especially since they have his alter in his castle felinoel ~ (Talk) 19:26, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

Image
The image of Saradomin from the God letters was pretty cool looking, why aren't you guys using that picture here as well as the modern look for Saradomin? felinoel ~ (Talk) 19:53, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

While browsing the God Letters, I found this picture, but it was never made clear if this is Saradomin or a monk. If it is Saradomin, could we put it in the article? Telos 19:31, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Pronunciation
I know that we have the current pronunciation from a "letter to the gods", but what about the player NPC player spoof called "Sarah Domin"? That's definitely not "Sa-Raw Do Min" How do we know which is the correct one? Also, everyone I know has always said it "Sarah Do Min". But, of course, lots of people say it the other way, too. Maha Nadihan 03:26, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * No one is going to name their kid "Saw-Raw" it is more likely that they would name them "Sarah" felinoel ~ (Talk) 16:30, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if you understand what I'm saying...I'll clarify. On the page Saradomin it says the pronunciation is "(Sa-raw-do-min)". This is a different pronunciation from the NPC called "Sarah Domin" (on the Gnomecopters). "Sa-raw" and "Sarah" are different. How do we know which pronunciation is correct? The current one on the page is from a "letter to the gods".Maha Nadihan 22:21, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
 * In the God Letters Saradomin said his name was pronounced Sa-Ra-Dome-In. I can't remember which issue, but I think it was somewhere near the end. Telos 19:31, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Suggestion for affiliated items
I recently was gearing up for a GWD trip, and was thinking how much more useful the list of affiliated items would be if it was sorted by equipment slot, rather than the set it comes from. Thoughts? This would also be in the bandos, armadyl, and zamorak pages.

Zamorak's Brother?
This isn't regarding Tobi. I was scanning through the god letters for information and Zamorak is clearly mentioned as Saradomin's brother. I assumed that it had been retconned (retroactive-continuity) for the sake of the establishment of the Majharrat and more complex plots as the games theology progressed, can anyone give some sort of confirmation? 118.93.58.136 07:10, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

The main gods often refer to eachother as brothers, I think in one letter to the gods (it might have been a Zammy) one of them mentions that it is figurative.--  Long Live Armadyl    01:24, 31 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah. I'm guessing its along the same lines of monks (etc) in the real world (i.e. they refer to each other as "Brothers" but aren't actually related by blood). 17:15, 31 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes, I believe that the gods then called eachother "brother" for simplicity's sake. It's another of those things that the populace of RuneScape are brought up to believe, but which isn't actually true. Like there are several references to the First Age being the Age when Saradomin, Zamorak and Guthix all made Gielinor together. But we know from quests like Meeting History that Guthix shaped Gielinor on his own, and of course, Zamorak is nowhere near a brother to the other two, because he was only made a god in the Second Age, when he killed Zaros. Besides, I'm not sure if the God Letters are even considered canon by Jagex any more. [[File:Silver sickle.png‎‎]] Asparagoose   Asparagoose 23:31, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Peace?
- The article says that Saradomin is the god of Law, Order and Peace. But if he'd be peaceful he wouldn't have hunt the Zarosians down or faught in the God Wars. I think the word peace should be replaced with Purity.

arcanists
who says that saradomin? could it not be just a random monk..? 03:53, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Look at his chest symbol. And there is a close ressemblance. ^^ 14:56, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Looks
Doesn't Saradomin kind of look like Moses? Maybe it can be added to Trivia?

'Saradomin has a close appearance, similar to biblical hero Moses.' or something like that  Jhanely   15:06, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

He also looks like confucius and is from the eastern lands.

I got to admit, Saradomin looks incredibly cool.! the coolest character image on runescape! Hes got glowing eyes!


 * Confucius is a real world person, and neither him or Mozus are pictural data. So we can't know if Sara looks like them. But... now we can say he looks a bit like some-one dressed in Gold, blue and shiney ancient Greek/Roman armour. 17:44, September 18, 2011 (UTC) (& pls sign).

saradomin's speices
I don't think he is mahjarrat because mahjarrats are hellish creatures and saradomin is the opposite of that

Saradomin had/has Eastern Lands' followers?

(Could it be??)

From the Trivia of Karil: Karil's crossbow seems to be based off the real life Chu-ke nu, an ancient Chinese crossbow that used a rapid fire system. If this is true, this could also explain why Ak-Haranu sells the required bolt racks, as he is from the Eastern Lands and the Eastern Lands seem to be based on the ancient/medieval Far East. It might be concluded that at least Karil came from, or visited the Eastern Lands. Pointing to the idea that Saradomin might have (had) some followers in the Eastern Lands too.

Saradominist Fundamentalism
Since the link was censored from the article, I've decided to place it here instead:

Saradominist Wiki

It doesn't nescessary follow the Jagex canon, but tries to give a fundamentalist answer to some of the questions e.g.


 * the connection between Armadyl and Saradomin and


 * some members of the Order of Saradomin not accepting the Edicts of Guthix.

Yes, it draws some parallels to real-life religions, but by having it in another wiki, it doesn't interfere with the neutrality and objectivity of the official wiki. Simply both in-game and player saradominist might understand themselves different from the Jagex canon just as real-life scholars disagree with fundamentalist followers of real-life religions. Clearly saradominism has parrallels to christianity, and as such it is reasonable to parallel armadylism to judaism, since Armadyl is the God of Law, as judaism is centred on observing the Torah (divine Law).


 * 1st: please sign ;) - (User:Gywerd, wasn't it?)
 * And 2nd: I agree with you that there are a lot of (light) symbolic parallels, but the more stronger parallels are (in my eyes) due to players' interpretations and added links etc. For example on that Wiki they talk about the Saradomin/Jas Trinity?? I mean... come-on! :-P

Parellels Nations?
What is Guthix was supposed to represent England because England created both America and Australia, Saradomin represented Australia and America represented zamorak because it wants power, wealth fame and fortune?


 * Sorry, what?? (Btw, pls sign) 16:44, August 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * Listen, I am sorry if you just got off the I Hate SOPA fan wagon, but that is pretty much over and you sound like an idiot.

Monks
Most monk NPCs in the game have healing powers. I'd assume they get this power from Saradomin some how. There doesn't really seem to be any concrete info about how they are able to use those powers. Is there anything that suggests the origin of their healing power?

Saradomin is Power-Hungry.
Saradomin seems to always claim that Zamorak is evil and that Saradomin is all for peace and what not. But in reality, Saradomin has no problem with fighting, and seems to try to conquer the religious beliefs of Gielinor. I mean, it's no secret that he has ill feelings toward Zaros, because during the God Wars he set out to destroy the rest of Zaros' empire. Saradomin has also demanded to Guthix that Zamorak's followers and influences should be destroyed. If anything, Saradomin plays it so that he a good- willed, peaceful god, but in reality, he is nothing but a power-hungry god that wants to conquer Gielinor's religious beliefs. He is obviously my least favourite god for these reasons, and I am shocked that many people haven't noticed this!

Am I the only one who sees this?

JeffGC64 (talk) 06:20, September 1, 2012 (UTC)JeffGC64

Nope. That plus the real-world application of his character makes him my least favourite, too. 93.24.182.209 11:04, September 2, 2012 (UTC)

Is what you are saying is that you don't like a certain religion(wink), because for me that isn't it at all, I am a Christian Catholic, it's just that Saradomin has such a terrible character for being depicted as the "good" god.

AGE
Saradomin has always been considered a younger god than Guthix, however, in Guthix's flashback to his homeworld during 'The World Wakes' a Saradominist symbol can be seen on a platform. Could this mean that Saradomin was part of the God Wars that tore apart Guthix's homeworld? Meaning that he is an older god than Guthix himself. Or perhaps even that Saradomin killed and took the symbol of an older god? 220.245.189.199 13:12, March 5, 2013 (UTC)Shane

In the Guthixian Memories as part of the 2013 easter event, it is revealed that Saradomin did in fact participate in the God Wars that tore apart Guthix's homeworld. He was even the first (young) god to appear on that world.220.245.189.199 00:55, March 13, 2013 (UTC) Shane
