Mr. Mordaut

Mr. Mordaut is a draconic school teacher, seen during the Surprise Exam! random event. He is currently one of the very few non-attackable dragons in the game, with the others being K'klik (a fairy dragon seen during Recipe for Disaster), and the dragons powering the machine from Perils of Ice Mountain.

Mr. Mordaut also possesses the gift of fluent speech which is rare amongst dragons. The two possible tasks given during the Surprise Exam! random are "Choose the next in line" and "hints". After the player has correctly answered three questions, they receive a Random event gift with a Book of Knowledge instead of a Genie lamp. This book gives 50% more experience than a Genie lamp.

The music track School's Out is unlocked upon being teleported to Mr. Mordaut the first time.

Despite his occupation for long durations of time in another realm that appears isolated from Gielinor, Mr. Mordaut appears to possess an impressive hoard of knowledge concerning RuneScape. For example, Mordaut appears to have extensive knowledge concerning teleportation, such as its development by Gielinor's early wizards, and the planar theory. According to Alathazdrar, it was Mordaut who taught him and others how to become Demon-Butlers, yet was most "conflagratory and irascible to the younger students."

Mordaut also seems to be extraordinarily intelligent and wise for a dragon, and is extremely concerned with spelling and grammar.

Mr. Mordaut also possesses knowledge of the diamond and its hardness from its complex crystalline structure, as well as why one would need a high Crafting level to cut the gem. Mordaut also has limited knowledge of the Dragonkin themselves, as well as Dragon metal. He also claims to know about the armour from the Barrows of Morytania and the God Wars Dungeon.

Mr. Mordaut was one of the commentators during the Gielinor Games event. While commentating, he said dragons are especially fascinated with collecting things, and that he himself likes to collect rare coins. He mentions that he possess an Avarrocka guinea coin, after which Tenacle calls him "dragon geek".
