Tortoise

The Tortoise (Testudines Giganteus) are trained tortoises used by the gnomes in battle. These are located at the Battlefield of Khazard, south-west of Ardougne. They have very high hitpoints and low attack, so they are better than Yaks or Rock crabs for training purposes.

They are usually ridden by three gnomes: a Gnome archer, Gnome driver, and a Gnome mage, all level 5s. Protection prayers will not work because the tortoises use range, melee, and magic, and a player cannot have all of the prayers activated at once. When the tortoise is killed, the three gnomes yell and attack you. The warrior yells, "No! Dobbie is dead!"; the mage yells, "Kill the infidel."; and the ranger merely says, "Argh!" They become aggresive to ALL players, so low levels should be careful around them.

When fighting the tortoise, the three gnomes take turns attacking the player. The mage sends a spell, which looks like Water strike, but sounds like Ice Barrage. The ranger shoots, and the tortoise attacks with the warrior holding the reigns. The tortoises can hit with a maximum of 12.
