"Without the power of the Dark Altar, there's nothing to keep our people alive. ^ Asteros Arceuus, Old School RuneScape."My father was quick to act, using himself as a conduit to channel what little power the Altar had left." "The Altar is fine, but its power has been redirected. "In the crypt below us, we freed our souls from the flesh-temples that had imprisoned them, and we took the form you see now." These bodies are sustained by the Dark Altar." Those that did, were granted new bodies to house their souls. "Not all of accepted this gift of course, as was their right. ^ Lord Trobin Arceuus, Old School RuneScape.I went to my people and shared the secrets of immortality with them." "It was a thousand years ago, during the time of King Byrne II. Being away from the Dark Altar has taken a greater toll on me than I expected." "Now if you excuse me, this conversation is. Its power sustains our bodies in the same way yours is sustained by food and drink." "Ever since the Ascent of Arceuus, our people have been kept alive by the Dark Altar. With the help of an adventurer, who discovered the device redirecting the Dark Altar's power, the crisis ended and the people of Arceuus were saved. Lord Trobin Arceuus acted quickly by using himself as a conduit to channel the little remaining power the Dark Altar possessed, but this temporary loss in power caused one Citizen of Arceuus, Thana, to perish. This device redirected most of the Dark Altar's power, destabilising the immortal forms of the Citizens of Arceuus. However, during the 149th decade (or Year 169 of the Fifth Age), a mysterious device was concealed near the Dark Altar by Head Councillor David Andrews under the instructions of Xamphur, who served Xeric during the Age of Strife. With the Dark Altar's power sustaining their form, they no longer have need for food, water, or sleep, and as a result the population of Arceuus remained static for nearly a thousand years. įollowing the Ascent of Arceuus, the Citizens of Arceuus slowly became accustomed to their new lives. According to Mofina, the crypt below the church in Arceuus was where Citizens of Arceuus gained immortality, by freeing their souls from their physical bodies. While not all of them accepted this gift, those that did were granted new bodies to house their souls, which are sustained by the Dark Altar. Trobin would use the very same knowledge that saved his wife to grant the Citizens of Arceuus immortality in an event known as The Ascent of Arceuus. The Tasakaal then granted them the knowledge of immortality, saving his wife. Trobin's wife had become very ill, and he pleaded to them to help his dying wife.
The vast majority of the Citizens of Arceuus would later become immortal in a similar way Xeric did during the reign of King Byrne II 900 years ago, when Lord Trobin Arceuus and his brother-in-law travelled to Mount Karuulm to seek the Tasakaal. It is likely that Xeric shared this secret with some of his followers, such as Xamphur and Vasa Nistirio. King Shayzien used the secret to shed his mortal form and took the name Xeric, ruling Great Kourend with an iron fist for over a century. The first to achieve immortality through the Dark Altar was supposedly King Shayzien VII, who managed to obtain the secret from the Tasakaal, an ancient trio of TzHaar who reside in Mount Karuulm. The immortal forms of the Citizens of Arceuus are sustained by the power of the Dark Altar, and being away from its presence for too long appears to take a toll on the individual. Beneath their robes, they supposedly look like grey semi-transparent humanoid skeletons without legs. The term "Citizens of Arceuus" generally denotes those who gave up their human bodies and gained immortality through the use of the Dark Altar during the Ascent of Arceuus.īeing generally spiritual in appearance, Citizens of Arceuus float above the ground and cover themselves in long robes, hats, and masks, making only their glowing eyes visible. Citizens of Arceuus are a group of ascended humans who live in Arceuus in the kingdom of Great Kourend.
