Uade Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Unsure if this is the right forum, but I couldn't find a better one. Tip.it says that General Graardor is a Goblin, and Commander Zilyana is a Humanoid. I was talking on the RSOF and they said that Tip.it made a mistake and that General Graardor is an Ourg and Commander Zilyana is an Icyene. Is tip.it incorrect for labeling them as they did? Can I have some feedback on this. I'm sorry if this is spam, abit new to these forums. :S RuneCrafting addict Divination addict Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_Is_Great Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think Ourg and Icyene are more specific catagories. Goblin/Humanoid are general. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

green9090 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'm pretty sure ourg is a subset of ogre, not goblin. As for Zilyana... I guess Icyenes are humanoid, but her species is definitely Icyene.

Zaaps1 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 You're very right. Graardor is actually an Ourg, and Zilyana is in fact an Icyene. Of that there is no dispute. However, it is important to note that they are the ONLY members of their respective races currently known to us. In other words, there are no other Ourgs or Icyenes in Runescape at this present moment. (Note that there are Ourg Bones, but those are obtain from special chests rather than drops from an ourg.) Now, I was not one of the people who catagorized Zilyana or Graardor, as I was not a crew member when GWD was released. However, to my understanding, this is the line of reasoning. Since they are the only members of their respective races, it makes little sense to great an entirely new category just for one monster, even if doing so would be "politically correct". You can see that the same holds true for Kree, who is classified as an Animal despite being an Aviansie. There are just simply not enough Aviansies in Runescape to justify creating a new category. If you look at Kril, however, you will see that he is classified as a Demon, as it is an expansive class. Thus, Kree, Graar, and Zil were simply given classes that we "close enough" to their true races, just not 100% accurate. Again, this should be taken with a grain of salt as, after all, I was not involved with the categorizing of these monsters. ~It's Super Effective!

Obtaurian Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 That dude from the Myreque quests is an Icyene, Zaaps. ;) To put it bluntly, [bleep] off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 That dude from the Myreque quests is an Icyene, Zaaps. ;)I mean monsters. And if we're thinking of the same person, I think it's only speculated that he's an Icyene. I can't remember his name though, but something about his blue eyes and last name. ~It's Super Effective!

Sir_Squab Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Come to think of it though, ourg bones ARE some kind of ogre, if that's a sub-type or whatever. If ourg bones are found at a graveyard that ogres use, that suggests that ourgs are somehow related to ogres. And that guy is definitely related to the Icyenes somehow. Squab unleashes Megiddo!
