Jessica is the old mans daughter. the old man years ago was turned into a chicken by Ernest's quest machine and was then kept trapped by ikov and stolen by the eleves and he then escaped and to find a cure he went to ape atoll failed so he visted count dracken who turned him into a demented old man doomed to walk around the barrows forever.( while he was a chicken which was for 400 years he did not age as well)

I reckon she was sleeping with the guy doing the digging, he killed her and buried her 8-)

 

 

 

Sounds.... plausible :-k

Previously known as Monkeybeast0.

didn't the summer quests say that after the family were all killed by bandits, one servant who had been away came back and buried them? Dig, dig, dig...

 

I don't think so...he seems to have known Jennica but not been aware that she died.

 

So he couldn't have buried her.

Hmm... Maybe Jennica is one of the Starnge Old Man's ancestor's. :-k

 

 

 

Or maybe the sister of the Barrows Bros. It's possible, I'm not sure during what age the Barrows Bros. lived but I'm guessing 3rd age?

 

Same age as when Zamorak or Zaros controlled the wildy?

 

Maybe same age as when Jennica died from the Beast? :-k

 

 

 

Sister? i think shes their daughter. ever notice how Jennica looks a bit...out of proportion? its because when insest occurs, the genetics of the kid gets messed up, therefore proving the point that Jennica is an experiment gone wrong, 400 years ago. Thats what probably got zaros (or whoever the god was that the barrow brothers were working for) pissed off and killed em off so "they could be stronger" or some other nonsence excuse for a cover up...

 

 

 

excuse my spelling, its 2 a.m right now and im sleepless so im typing rubish. :^o

You guys are confusing Jennica with Summer.

 

 

 

The girl you help in the quest is Summer. Jennica was not taken by the beast, she just died. You never spoke with Jennica.

:o the dark truth reveiled!

 

 

 

We've all been playing a sick, twisted game!

Reverents can be a pain, but you can run away from them. Just curious, do they still have teleblocking ability?

Fear the church, the reverents have 85 magic!!!!

Perhaps he had something to do with the burying of her, and he became insane and started to randomly dig at the barrows? :o

 

 

 

Maybe....but didnt they say they were dead for 400 years?

 

if it is...strange old man is really really old :ohnoes:

This poor little girl has been trapped in the Spirit Beast's Realm for the last four hundred years

 

Well, he is strange. Not to mention old. :ohnoes:

 

 

 

don't forget, a man.

 

 

 

 

 

ummm anyone els realize this.

 

 

 

the barrows brothers were created by a servant of zaros.

 

the servant of zaros was a man in a black cloak who dissapeared before their last battle.

 

now their is a stange old man near their burrial site sounding as if he's centuries old????????? :ohnoes:

Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature!

Has anybody tried activating the ring around the barrows area? it is pretty "spiritual". maybe there's an invisible portal!

 

 

 

 

 

OT: just beat summers end 30 mins ago! Such a fun quest!

i really really hope so

 

 

 

that would be awesome

 

the strange old mac could easily be the servant of zaros who was giving them their commands when they died

 

or something like that

 

i mean i think we're due for an explanation of who he is anyway right?

"I recently received a remarkably tattered manuscript from a strange old man who lives in deepest, darkest Morytania. This scroll was evidently ancient and contained an intriguing new angle on the famous legend of the Barrows. I'm not entirely sure of the significance, but the man signed his letter off with the words 'Dig dig dig' - perhaps he has lived in Morytania too long."

My opinion is the guy just really wants the armor to sell it and make redonculous amounts of money.

Matt: You want that eh? You want everything good for you. You want everything that's--falls off garbage can

Camera guy: Whoa, haha, are you okay dude?

Matt: You want anything funny that happens, don't you?

Camera guy: still laughing

Matt: You want the funny shit that happens here and there, you think it comes out of your [bleep]ing [wagon] pushes garbage can down, don't you? You think it's funny? It comes out of here! running towards Camera guy

Camera guy: runs away still laughing

Matt: You think the funny comes out of your mother[bleep]ing creativity? Comes out of Satan, mother[bleep]er! nn--ngh! pushes Camera guy down

Camera guy: Hoooholy [bleep]!

It was ancient - from the Brothers' time.

 

The Strange Old Man is wearing a hood, as described in the story.

 

 

 

I believe he could be the hooded figure.

or the dude is just jennica's father or something.

 

 

 

Jennica has been dead 400 years.

 

The Strange Old Man, is still alive.

 

 

 

So if the Strange Old Man had Jennica at 18, and Jennica died at 25 (judging by Summer age) That makes the Strange Old Man 443. He may be old, but he aint that old!

 

And remember, as stated by Jagex WE DON'T KNOW HOW LONG A YEAR IN RUNESCAPE IS! From 2001 when Rs started to now, 2008 it's still the SAME YEAR!

Oh, and if I remember correctly the Summer's farm was destroyed in God Wars (has bad memory so don't hesitate if I was wrong)

He may have had a previous career of digging around in the wilderness before he took up residence at the barrows.

 

I think all this stuff about him being hundreds of years old or undead seems far fetched.

He just successfully trolled you with "courtesy" and managed to get a reaction out of you. Lol

I don't know. I mean, he DOES live in Morytania, the place filled with ghosts, ghouls, and vampires. Plus, he could me a Mahjarrat or any other long lived race. He could even have had his life extended indefinitely through magic- this is a fantasy game. Practically nothing is far fetched.
If the CORPORAL beast is this hard, imagine how hard a GENERAL or COLONEL beast would be. a corporal is not even an admirable rank in armies that use that ranking system.

 

Yeah, it is a pking minigame, so any arguments anybody makes will probably be biased.

The best way this will end :Everybody just says,"I'm not arguing with you anymore, goodbye."

The worst way this will end: I don't really know, psychological warfare? Worldwide thermonuclear war? Pie eating contest?

I'm pretty sure the Mahjarrat don't look like that. Zemouregal looks very much like a skeleton to me, although it's possible they have the ability to transform.

Remind anyone of the woo woo woos before Summer quests?

CANE

 

Just to be different.

 

Think about it. A freaking Dragon Cane with a Dragonstone gem.

The spec will simply your character equiping a glove and beachslapping the enemy, who will break down and do the Cry emote for 10 seconds straight.

If i'm not mistaken the majaharrat are followers of Zaros correct?

 

and they seem to be something along the lines of skeletal mages

 

well in the lore of the brothers it describes the stranger as having lidless eyes

 

the end also mentions "old magic" which would point towards ancients

 

and zamorak would be the usurper the brothers were supposed to rise against if his god was zaros

 

I think if you look at it it pretty much says if the new quest is going to be zaros related that the brothers will have some part in it

 

how this relates to jennica i can't really see

 

although the brothers were farmers and it could easily be that that is where they came from

 

it may be that jennica's ring will have some effect on the brothers if they see it after their rise, perhaps swaying them from the power os the agents of Zaros

 

 

 

but who knows really

 

we may know one day

 

i'm really looking forward to finding out though

Damnit, I tripped over Magzar's half inflated blow-up doll and hurt myself. I wish he wouldn't leave that thing lying around. -.-

[/hide]

The hooded figure is definitely a follower of Zaros ('A purple light bled into the barrows').

 

Something that just struck me... The Mahjarrat are going north... What's north? The Corporeal Beast... Maybe the Zamorak followers are trying to harness its power, and the Zarosians are attempting to stop them, or vice-versa?

I hadn't even thought about it till you said it, but there are speculations about the Strange old man being Sliske. Sliske was a Mahjarrat who worked for Zaros, and it is said that he currently 'delves in the shadows', which could easily point to the endless digging of the SOM. The SOM was also the guy who sent a scroll to Reldo about the Barrow Brothers. Oh yes, it is confirmed that Sliske currently lives, and there are some more facts linking Sliske to the Barrows, but I don't have them close by. But as Sliske is a Mahjarrat, and Mahjarrat's are practically immortal, he could have easily known Jennica personally, even more because she lived in the area of the old Zarosian Empire.

 

 

 

The only thing not fitting in is why he is such a freaking nutcase... :-k Maybe the pain and agony of the death of his loved one (lover or relative... or both! :o incest, as mentioned above) made him go crazy?

Due to my epic stats, I have now started WGS (but I still hate spoilers).

idk about increasing drops, but all i know is i broke my dry streak in 2 runs wearing it :thumbsup: as for the strange old man..... MOAR INPUT! is required :lol:
