Bonespear Tower was, as the name suggests, a tower made of bone. It was located in the Solhaven area, specifically on a hillock near the Foggy Valley. Bonespear Tower was known to be haunted and contains a number of undead creatures within its bony structure.

The date of the tower's construction is unknown, but it may date back to the time of the Wildwood Settlement on the Cairnfang River. The tower was built as a prison for a demon known as Maleskari, by a group of sorcerers of mixed race. The chief among them was named Bonespear. It was during this construction that Bonespear went mad, killed his fellows, and the demon escaped from its bindings. Afterwards, the ghosts of the sorcerers and Bonespear had been seen within the tower. The tower had four floors, including the uppermost platform.

Ambient Scripts

Your vision becomes elastic as you see the laboratory as it once was. Two mages, one dwarven and one human are working at one of the tables. Their conversation erupts into an argument and it appears they are about to come to blows when the beaker the human mage is holding shatters in his hand, spraying glass everywhere and cutting his hand. His blood sizzles as it drops to the floor and he glances up to see if the dwarf has noticed this, but the dwarf has turned to fetch a whisk and pan to clean up the mess. Suddenly, your eyes swim with blood and you are blinded a moment before you vision returns to normal.

Behind the Scenes

Bonespear Tower is a hunting area containing dybbuks at level 48, waerns at level 49, and eidolons at level 55, which are all undead. Eidolons are the only non-corporeal inhabitants. Waerns have the ability to disarm adventurers and weapons can be lost in the tower.

The tower will shift at times, and cause creatures and players to fall down (RT).
