[[File:Commander Zilyana chathead.png|left]]'''Commander Zilyana, Keeper of the Faith,''' is the leader of Saradomin's army in the [[God Wars Dungeon]]. She is an [[Icyene]], an ancient race of winged beings, chosen by Saradomin to guard his [[Saradomin Hilt|hilt]]. Commander Zilyana uses a melee attack and a magic attack. She uses them randomly and both attacks are quite accurate. She attacks with her multi-target magic attack when her sword glows with a bright blue aura and she raises it in the air. If the attack hits a player, a small wall of lightning will appear around the player. She attacks with melee when she simply slashes at the player with her sword. Her melee attack is not multi-target. Both her magic and melee attacks only work at close range.

'''Commander Zilyana, Keeper of the Faith,''' is the leader of Saradomin's army in the [[God Wars Dungeon]]. She is an [[Icyene]], an ancient race of winged beings, chosen by Saradomin to guard his [[Saradomin hilt|hilt]]. Commander Zilyana uses a melee attack and a magic attack. She attacks with her multi-target magic attack when her sword glows with a bright blue aura and she raises it in the air. If the attack hits a player, a small wall of lightning will appear around the player. She attacks with melee when she simply slashes at the player with her sword. Her melee attack is not multi-target.
   
In addition, both her magic and melee attacks have a max of 1900 life points and they are both very rapid (same speed as dual-wielded dagger-speed weapons), so players should be careful fighting her. She will also target the player that has currently done the most damage to her.
+
Both her magic and melee attacks only work at close range. She attacks every 1.2 seconds and they both hit at the same time (she will only use magic in melee distance). She targets the player closest to her upon spawning, but switches to the player who has currently done the most damage to her.
   
Commander Zilyana is located in the back room of Saradomin's Encampment. Players must have 70 Agility and 40 Saradominist kills to reach her. In addition, she has 3 guards: [[Growler]] ([[magic]]), [[Bree]] ([[ranged]]) and [[Starlight]] ([[melee]]).

  +
If [[blood spells]] are used on her consistently, the message ''"Commander Zilyana becomes more enraged by your spells and tries to channel them to increase her own power!"'' will appear in the chatbox, and her power will be boosted, granting her stronger attacks. This effect stacks (although there is a cap to it), so continued use of blood spells may prove fatal. A better alternative is [[Shadow Barrage]], which reduces her damage, whilst hitting Zilyana and everything around her.
'''Note: '''You can not reach her if you do not have 70 Agility (boosts such as [[Summer Pies]] do '''not''' work).

Obtaining all unique drops will unlock the {{TitleAnchor|t=Finesse of the Icyene|c=#C2A155|loc=s|,=c}} title.
Commander Zilyana is dangerous and should not be underestimated. She is tied with fellow God Wars Dungeon bosses [[General Graardor]], [[K'ril Tsutsaroth|K'ril Tsutsaroth]] and [[Kree'arra]] for having the fifth highest combat level among monsters that can be fought with conventional means in ''RuneScape''. Only [[Nex]], the [[Queen Black Dragon]], [[Vorago]], and the [[Kalphite King]] are stronger.

===The God Wars===
  +
====Battle of Annakarl====
  +
Prior to arriving at the [[God Wars Dungeon|Temple of Lost Ancients]], Zilyana participated in the battle of [[Annakarl]], where it was under Saradominst control. She battled K'ril, but was overpowered by the demon and mortally wounded. Saradomin arrived, teleported her to the Stone of Jas, and used its powers to heal her otherwise fatal wounds.
   
  +
====The Godsword====
==Bodyguards==
 
  +
Eventually, Zilyana was dispatched to the Temple of Lost Ancients to help a flock of Avianstese who were pinned by Zamorakian forces. Given a group of [[saradomin priest|priests]] and [[Knight of Saradomin|knights]], she also recruited peasants to strengthen her army. In her [[Zilyana's Notes|notes]], she states that it was foolish for the avianstese to retreat into the caverns, and was even more annoyed that [[General Graardor]] was sent for "assistance". The three groups were already on uneasy terms when Graardor tried to take the godsword for Bandos, leaving her and Kree'arra against Graador and K'ril.

  +
During one of the skirmishes, her bodyguard [[Growler]] became seriously injured and she ordered a retreat, praying for Saradomin's aid. The next day, she found three amulets bearing the symbols of [[Saradomin's murmur|Armadyl]], [[Saradomin's whisper|Bandos]] and [[Saradomin's hiss|Zamorak]], which she immediately destroyed and began to find the supposed heretic. The next day, the amulets reappeared on the altar, and she realised that Saradomin was sending them, but was confused with their purpose.
==Quotes==
 
{{Listen|align=right|title=All praise Saradomin!|desc=|filename=Commander Zilyana.ogg}}
 
When in battle, the Commander [[Speech|shouts]] several battle cries while fighting the players that dare to venture into her domain. She is voiced by [[Mod Ana]].
 
   
  +
Eventually, Zilyana had her bodyguards wear the amulets; [[Bree]] took the pendant with Armadyl's icon. Bree eventually went out with several soldiers to check on the progress of the battle. Zilyana heard the battle and mulled for Bree to return. Bree eventually returned and told Zilyana that it was as if she was calling for him. Zilyana soon realized the purpose of the amulets and praised Saradomin's wisdom. The situation deteriorated even further and now all sides were battling against each other. Zilyana eventually learned of Kree'arra's plan to attack her encampment, and using the power of the amulet, convinced him to do so. In the ensuing ambush, she claimed a [[Armadyl crossbow|powerful crossbow]] from his forces.
   
  +
During the course of the fighting, a spell cast by an unknown army backfired upon the entire cavern, freezing the entire cave perfectly in place. Zilyana was amongst those left imprisoned. Very shortly after this occurred, the god Guthix established the Edicts of Guthix, preventing the direct involvement of any deity in Gielinor. The departure of the world's Gods and the subsequent end of the God Wars meant that the cavern was forgotten, and Zilyana would remain frozen in time with its warring armies for more than 2,000 years to come.
*Death to the enemies of the light!
 
*Slay the evil ones!
 
*Saradomin lend me strength!
 
*By the power of Saradomin!
 
*May Saradomin be my sword.
 
*Good will always triumph!
 
*Forward! Our allies are with us!
 
*Saradomin is with us!
 
*In the name of Saradomin!
 
*Attack! Find the Godsword!
 
   
  +
In the recent Fifth Age, investigations by both the dwarven explorer Nestor Peregrine and the Asgarnian Temple Knights nearly resulted in the cave's (and Zilyana's) rediscovery. In 169, tectonic movement in the neighbouring Wilderness caused large portions of the cave to defrost, eventually leading to the release of most of the cavern's population. Unaware that the God Wars have ended, Zilyana and the rest of the battle's leaders have resumed the battle for the godsword once again, seemingly unaware that centuries have passed since the end of the wars.
==Hard Mode==
 
When entering the battle area players are given the option of fighting Zilyana in Hard Mode. When fought in Hard Mode, in addition to increased stats, Zilyana has two phases to the fight, with additional abilities. She also has better drops, although chances for [[Saradomin sword]]s and the amulets are not boosted.
 
   
===Phase 1===
+
===The World Wakes===
  +
[[File:Cres dies.png|thumb|right|Zilyana kills Cres, mistaking him for Guthix.]]
In Phase 1, Commander Zilyana has the same attacks as she does in standard mode, however, after being defeated once, Commander Zilyana will heal back to full health and must be defeated again, beginning Phase 2.
 
  +
During the [[quests|quest]] [[The World Wakes]], Zilyana, along with [[K'ril Tsutsaroth]] and [[Kree'arra]], discover that the player had found [[Guthix|Guthix's]] home, and gather forces to break in to kill Guthix, ending his edicts and allowing their gods to return. Zilyana bides her time, while the Zamorakians and Bandosians attempt to brute force through the Guthixian defences. When they are repelled, Zilyana leads her soldiers into battle, attempting to break through [[Juna|Juna's]] barricade so they can reach and kill Guthix. In the ensuing battle, Zilyana sees the [[Guardians of Guthix|Guardian of Guthix]] [[Cres]] and kills him, believing that he is actually [[Guthix]] in disguise. She shows her disdain for the Zarosians when they appear after her failed assault.
   
  +
When Sliske kills Guthix, Saradomin is the first to arrive at the scene. She later accompanies Saradomin when he leaves. If the player decided to simply kill Guthix, Juna will mention that Zilyana left a [[Zilyana's Gift|gift]] for them.
===Phase 2===
 
====Lightning====
 
During Phase 2, Zilyana gains the ability to summon squares of lightning throughout the room. Standing on these spaces can deal over 1000 damage.
 
   
====Death====
+
===Missing, Presumed Death===
  +
{{Listen
Once her health reaches 50 lifepoints, Commander Zilyana will lie down on the floor and a bar that looks similar to an adrenaline bar appears under her lifepoints bar. She is invulnerable during this time, and the only way to finish her off is to successfully hit her with an [[Ultimate Ability]] before the bar fills up. If this is not done, she heals 1/3 of her lifepoints.

  +
Zilyana makes another appearance in the quest [[Missing, Presumed Death]]. She is at the [[Empyrean Citadel]], which was taken over by the [[Mahjarrat]] [[Sliske]] for his grand ascendacy into [[god]]hood. Zilyana is present here with [[Saradomin]] and appears once again as his chosen champion. As she did not receive a [[Invitation box|invitation]], Zilyana is left outside the entrance with the other generals. Zilyana was seen arguing with the [[elf]] [[Ifleen]] about the slaughter of Saradominist monks by an elven archer. The player can either side with Zilyana or Ifleen, or alternatively, tell her the truth. Her obedience to Saradomin can be seen when the player chooses to tell her the truth and she declines Ifleen's offer for a truce, declaring, "It is not truth until Saradomin decrees it so!"
   
  +
After the quest, Zilyana leaves the citadel when Sliske lets the dragonkin [[Strisath]] loose.
==The World Wakes==
 
[[File:Cres_dies.png|thumb|right|Zilyana kills Cres, mistaking him for Guthix.]]
 
During the [[quests|quest]] [[The World Wakes]], Zilyana, along with many other important followers of other gods discover that the player had found Guthix's home, and gather forces to break in to kill Guthix, ending his edicts and allowing their gods to return. During the quest, Zilyana kills the [[Guardian of Guthix]] [[Cres]], believing that he was Guthix in disguise. She was the only God Wars Dungeon boss along with [[Nex]] to make it to the last room of the Guthix ancient temple.
 
   
  +
===Sliske's Endgame===
==Missing, Presumed Death==
 
  +
Zilyana plays a small role in [[Sliske's Endgame]], where she accompanies her god into the labyrinth. After the quest, she can be found at the top of the [[White Knights' Castle]], though she cannot be interacted with in any way.
Zilyana makes another appearance in the quest [[Missing, Presumed Death]]. She is at the [[Empyrean Citadel]], which was taken over by the [[Mahjarrat]] [[Sliske]] for his grand ascendacy into [[God|godhood]]. Zilyana is present here with [[Saradomin]] and appears once again as his chosen champion. As she did not receive a [[Invitation box|invitation]], Zilyana is left outside the entrance with the other generals. Zilyana was seen arguing with the [[elf]] [[Ifleen]] and the player could choose to either support Zilyana, Ifleen, or tell them the truth. Her obedience to Saradomin can be seen when the player chooses to tell her the truth and she declines Ifleen's offer for a truce, declaring, "It is not truth until Saradomin decrees it so!" After the quest Zilyana, along with the other gods and their generals, disappears from the Empyrean citadel.
 
  +
  +
Prior to the release of the quest, she could be seen at the top of the White Knights' Castle, looking at the eclipse. She could not be interacted with in any way.

[FAQ] • [doc]
Commander Zilyana chathead

Commander Zilyana, Keeper of the Faith, is the leader of Saradomin's army in the God Wars Dungeon. She is an Icyene, an ancient race of winged beings, chosen by Saradomin to guard his hilt. Commander Zilyana uses a melee attack and a magic attack. She attacks with her multi-target magic attack when her sword glows with a bright blue aura and she raises it in the air. If the attack hits a player, a small wall of lightning will appear around the player. She attacks with melee when she simply slashes at the player with her sword. Her melee attack is not multi-target.

Both her magic and melee attacks only work at close range. She attacks every 1.2 seconds and they both hit at the same time (she will only use magic in melee distance). She targets the player closest to her upon spawning, but switches to the player who has currently done the most damage to her.

Commander Zilyana is located in the back room of Saradomin's Encampment. Players must have 70 Agility to reach her. In addition, she has 3 bodyguards: Growler (magic), Bree (ranged) and Starlight (melee).

If blood spells are used on her consistently, the message "Commander Zilyana becomes more enraged by your spells and tries to channel them to increase her own power!" will appear in the chatbox, and her power will be boosted, granting her stronger attacks. This effect stacks (although there is a cap to it), so continued use of blood spells may prove fatal. A better alternative is Shadow Barrage, which reduces her damage, whilst hitting Zilyana and everything around her.

Obtaining all unique drops will unlock the [Name], Finesse of the Icyene title.

History

The God Wars

Battle of Annakarl

Prior to arriving at the Temple of Lost Ancients, Zilyana participated in the battle of Annakarl, where it was under Saradominst control. She battled K'ril, but was overpowered by the demon and mortally wounded. Saradomin arrived, teleported her to the Stone of Jas, and used its powers to heal her otherwise fatal wounds.

The Godsword

Eventually, Zilyana was dispatched to the Temple of Lost Ancients to help a flock of Avianstese who were pinned by Zamorakian forces. Given a group of priests and knights, she also recruited peasants to strengthen her army. In her notes, she states that it was foolish for the avianstese to retreat into the caverns, and was even more annoyed that General Graardor was sent for "assistance". The three groups were already on uneasy terms when Graardor tried to take the godsword for Bandos, leaving her and Kree'arra against Graador and K'ril.

During one of the skirmishes, her bodyguard Growler became seriously injured and she ordered a retreat, praying for Saradomin's aid. The next day, she found three amulets bearing the symbols of Armadyl, Bandos and Zamorak, which she immediately destroyed and began to find the supposed heretic. The next day, the amulets reappeared on the altar, and she realised that Saradomin was sending them, but was confused with their purpose.

Eventually, Zilyana had her bodyguards wear the amulets; Bree took the pendant with Armadyl's icon. Bree eventually went out with several soldiers to check on the progress of the battle. Zilyana heard the battle and mulled for Bree to return. Bree eventually returned and told Zilyana that it was as if she was calling for him. Zilyana soon realized the purpose of the amulets and praised Saradomin's wisdom. The situation deteriorated even further and now all sides were battling against each other. Zilyana eventually learned of Kree'arra's plan to attack her encampment, and using the power of the amulet, convinced him to do so. In the ensuing ambush, she claimed a powerful crossbow from his forces.

During the course of the fighting, a spell cast by an unknown army backfired upon the entire cavern, freezing the entire cave perfectly in place. Zilyana was amongst those left imprisoned. Very shortly after this occurred, the god Guthix established the Edicts of Guthix, preventing the direct involvement of any deity in Gielinor. The departure of the world's Gods and the subsequent end of the God Wars meant that the cavern was forgotten, and Zilyana would remain frozen in time with its warring armies for more than 2,000 years to come.

In the recent Fifth Age, investigations by both the dwarven explorer Nestor Peregrine and the Asgarnian Temple Knights nearly resulted in the cave's (and Zilyana's) rediscovery. In 169, tectonic movement in the neighbouring Wilderness caused large portions of the cave to defrost, eventually leading to the release of most of the cavern's population. Unaware that the God Wars have ended, Zilyana and the rest of the battle's leaders have resumed the battle for the godsword once again, seemingly unaware that centuries have passed since the end of the wars.

The World Wakes

Cres dies

Zilyana kills Cres, mistaking him for Guthix.

During the quest The World Wakes, Zilyana, along with K'ril Tsutsaroth and Kree'arra, discover that the player had found Guthix's home, and gather forces to break in to kill Guthix, ending his edicts and allowing their gods to return. Zilyana bides her time, while the Zamorakians and Bandosians attempt to brute force through the Guthixian defences. When they are repelled, Zilyana leads her soldiers into battle, attempting to break through Juna's barricade so they can reach and kill Guthix. In the ensuing battle, Zilyana sees the Guardian of Guthix Cres and kills him, believing that he is actually Guthix in disguise. She shows her disdain for the Zarosians when they appear after her failed assault.

When Sliske kills Guthix, Saradomin is the first to arrive at the scene. She later accompanies Saradomin when he leaves. If the player decided to simply kill Guthix, Juna will mention that Zilyana left a gift for them.

Missing, Presumed Death

Zilyana makes another appearance in the quest Missing, Presumed Death. She is at the Empyrean Citadel, which was taken over by the Mahjarrat Sliske for his grand ascendacy into godhood. Zilyana is present here with Saradomin and appears once again as his chosen champion. As she did not receive a invitation, Zilyana is left outside the entrance with the other generals. Zilyana was seen arguing with the elf Ifleen about the slaughter of Saradominist monks by an elven archer. The player can either side with Zilyana or Ifleen, or alternatively, tell her the truth. Her obedience to Saradomin can be seen when the player chooses to tell her the truth and she declines Ifleen's offer for a truce, declaring, "It is not truth until Saradomin decrees it so!"

After the quest, Zilyana leaves the citadel when Sliske lets the dragonkin Strisath loose.

Sliske's Endgame

Zilyana plays a small role in Sliske's Endgame, where she accompanies her god into the labyrinth. After the quest, she can be found at the top of the White Knights' Castle, though she cannot be interacted with in any way.

Prior to the release of the quest, she could be seen at the top of the White Knights' Castle, looking at the eclipse. She could not be interacted with in any way.

Quotes

When in battle, the Commander shouts several battle cries while fighting the players that dare to venture into her domain. She is voiced by Mod Ana.

  • Death to the enemies of the light!
  • Slay the evil ones!
  • Saradomin lend me strength!
  • By the power of Saradomin!
  • May Saradomin be my sword!
  • Good will always triumph!
  • Forward! Our allies are with us!
  • Saradomin is with us!
  • In the name of Saradomin!
  • Attack! Find the Godsword!

Trivia

Zilyana concept art

Concept art of Commander Zilyana.

Zilyana concept art2

Older concept art of Zilyana.

  • In the Saradomin Strikes Campaign on Armies of Gielinor, it is revealed that at some point during the God Wars, Zilyana was captured by Zamorak, but then escaped.
  • Commander Zilyana received several extra buffs on the release of the Triskelion Treasures update. If she is constantly attacked by blood spells, she will become "enraged". Along with the same update, her magical strength was drastically increased, changed her weakness from Water spells to nothing, and had an increased magical defence.
  • Zilyana has her own custom special attacks, made by Mod Chris L, because she was the only original God Wars boss not to be fought during The World Wakes. 
Zilyana wounded
  • Commander Zilyana features in a flashback during the Ritual of the Mahjarrat quest. She is seen facing K'ril Tsutsaroth in battle. As they battle, K'ril gets the upper hand and blasts Zilyana away, critically injuring her. He takes a final look at her body and departs. Saradomin himself comes to rescue her and takes her to the Fist of Guthix arena, where the Stone of Jas lies, and heals her. She also received a graphical update with the release of this quest.
  • Zilyana is one of two icyenes shown in-game to have two sets of wings; one on her back near her shoulder-blades and another on her lower back near her lumbar. The other is Efaritay.
  • As of 1 February 2018, the highest kill count for this boss was 42,027 kills for normal mode and 3,384 for hard mode.[1]
    • This had increased to 44,515 for normal mode and had not increased for hard mode by 6 May 2018.[2].
