Perjour

Perjour's Corpse.

Perjour was a servant in the service of Zaros, first mentioned in the lore Twice Burnt. He was bound to a book that magically wrote everything he saw, heard and thought, which Zaros would read after every mission he sent Perjour to witness.

Zamorak casted a spell on the book while they were watching Char's performance when she was a dancer, which altered the spell Zaros had placed on the book of Perjour, duplicating the book into Zamorak's possession, so Zamorak could read what was being reported back to Zaros.

When Perjour was taken with Zamorak, Viggora, Thammaron, Enakhra and Char on a mission, Zamorak altered the spell again, causing the book to show a different version of events, hiding many occurrences. This alteration was made to help him overthrow Zaros with the Staff of Armadyl, as Zaros would not know of Zamorak's actions, enabling him to plan unhindered.

Perjour died in the caves leading to the Elder Kiln, as it shown in the Journal of Perjour, obtained during The Elder Kiln quest. During his last writings, Perjour stated that he was searching for the Kiln in attempt to raise an army for Zamorak. It is conclusive from the Journal that Perjour sided with Zamorak during his rebellion and served him until his death.

He also states in his journal that Char 'died' in a cave also. This cave is explored in the quest The Firemaker's Curse although it is discovered during the quest that Char wasn't dead and that her lifespan was actually expanded.

Trivia

• The name Perjour is very similar to perjure which is the willful act of swearing a false oath or affirmation to tell the truth, whether spoken or in writing.
