Introduction

Currently, there is three spell books. the Basic, Lunar, and Ancients. But out of those three, it seems like things are not fulfilled. There needs to be a spellbook dedicated to the ghosts and the essence of them. Read on to find out more.

The Spellbook

The spellbook was created by the ghosts of the wilderness, during the 3rd Age. These spells were used in the war, and they are what revenants use today.

The skills may not be temporarily boosted by anything to start.

To start the quest, pay a visit to Veia, a ghost that roams the graveywards in the wilderness. (The graveyard of shadows)
(If not wearing Amulet of Ghostspeak)
Veia: OoooOoooOOOOOoooO!
Player: Oook?

(If wearing Amulet of Ghostspeak)
Player: Hello.
Veia: Who goes there?
Player: Me, (insert player name here)!
Veia: Why are you here?
Player: I seek a quest.
Veia: I suppose I do have something that needs to be done...
Player: What is it?
Veia: You notice the interesting ghosts that roam around out here?
Player: Yes, I believe they are called revenants
Veia: Exactly right.
Player: So what do you need?
Veia: A new interesting one has been passing by the graveyard, and it's getting pretty annoying. It's in the shape of a dead Kalphite Queen.
Player: Oh dear!
Veia: Yes. I need you to get rid of it.
Player: And If I do?
Veia: It's power will be yours.
Player: It sounds like a lot of power...
Veia: It is.
Player: So where do I find this monster?
Veia: Well I have no clue. If anyone would know, it would probably be the Mystics in the nearby camp. They've been spying on the local revenants for ...quite a while now.
Player: Okay, Thanks!
Veia: Best of luck, adventurer!

Go to Stealing Creation, and talk to the head mystic.

Head Mystic: Hello
Player: I have a question for you.
Head Mystic: Yes?
Player: Where can I find a powerful undead monster?
Head Mystic: They're all around us.
Player: Yeah, But I'm looking for a special one. Somehow in the shape of a "Kalphite Queen"
Head Mystic: Oh yes. Our camp was digging somewhat northeast of here where the ghouls were seeming to gather, and we dug beneath them.
Player: And?
Head Mystic: There was a tunnel, and deep within that tunnel there was a monster, in the shape of a Kalphite Queen.
Player: Where is this tunnel?
Head Mystic: The tunnel was missing after we went to check, but I managed to get some of the essence from the monster. I turned it into a talisman, so it could be tracked down.

He hands you the talisman.

Player: Ok, thanks!

And the Talisman will guide you to a part in the wilderness where the Tunnel to the Revenant Kalphite Queen leads. It is random for each player and does not change, like the Draugen. Once you found the spot, dig at it with your spade and a hole will appear.

Player: Wow... It sure is dark in here.

There will be a long tunnel, and at the very end, there will be a "Mysterious Monster" that can only be examined. When you enter the room it is in, It will go "Raaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrr" and hit you for your max HP. You will then wake up at Stealing Creation next to the Head Mystic.

Head Mystic: You DARE disturb that creature?
Player: Well I-
Head Mystic: You could of been slaughtered! If it wasn't for our desert friend you would of died!
Player: I didn't know-
Head Mystic: I'm afraid I'm going to have to take that talisman away from you.

The Head Mystic quickly takes it away.

Player: Hey! I need that!
Head Mystic: The only one needing that is us!
Player: Ughh...

You need to return to Veia now.

Veia: Did you kill the monster?
Player: No...
Veia: What happened?
Player: The Head Mystic at the camp gave me a talisman, so I could track it down. There was a tunnel, and I dug it up. In the tunnel, I went to the very end and I met a Mysterious monster. It killed me quickly and I woke back up at the Mystic's camp.
Veia: Oh my!
Player: Yes.
Veia: We're going to have to do something to get that talisman back.
Player: What?
Veia: The Mystics have a distinct bond with the revenants, right?
Player: Yes.
Veia: Well. If they take away from us, we'll take away from them.
Player: WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAH. You expect me to kill a revenant?
Veia: Five of them, for sure.
Player: And what good will this do?
Veia: We wil threaten the mystics until they give the talisman back.
Player: Good plan.
Veia: Now go kill them!

You are now expected to kill 5 revenants. Anything will work. When you kill 5, return to the Head Mystic.

Head Mystic: Oh no! Our spirits are being banished from Gielenor!
Player: That's right.
Head Mystic: Huh?
Player: I killed them.
Head Mystic: You WHAT?
Player: Yes. I want that talisman back
Head Mystic: And to let you kill MORE of them? I think not!
Player: Or I'll just kill all of them.
Head Mystic: Oh well... I guess I have no choice. Here's your talisman.

He hands you the talisman

Player: Thanks!
Head Mystic: You're not welcome!

Return to Veia and show her the Talisman.

Player: This is the talisman.
Veia: Interesting... I think I've seen something like this before.
Player: Where?
Veia: I'm not sure. It just seems to ring a bell.
Player: So, should I track down this thing?
Veia: Not yet. If it's a Kalphite Queen and it's a Revanant, It'll be nearly unstoppable.
Player: What do I need?

Veia takes out a mysterious magnifying glass and looks on the other side of the talisman, where some mysterious letters are engraved.

Veia: This is what it says.

"THE WEAPON TO SLAY THE QUEEN OF THE DESERT.
WEAPON MUST BE TAINTED WITH UNDEAD POWER."

Player: It reminds me of something.
Veia: When you think you've found it, bring it back.
Player: Okay.

Get keris and bring it to Veia.

Player: I think this it is, Veia.
Veia: I knew it! Keris!
Player: Now all we need is the taint of undead power.
Veia: I'll be able to do that.

Veia emanates a mysterious ray coming from her eyes and Keris will become "Darkened Dagger."
It'll look like Keris but a tip of purple instead of green, like poison.

Veia: Here we go.
Player: Perfect!
Veia: Now go kill that beast!
Player: Yes, Ma'am!

Go to the lair, with armor, food, prayer pots, and everything you'll need to kill it.

When you find the Mysterious Monster, a cutscene will happen.
You'll confront the monster, it'll say RAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWRGH and then the fight begins

It is now a
Revenant Kalphite Queen (Lv. 597)
Here is the guide to kill her.

Revenant Kalphite Queen
Race: Kalphite
Max Hit: 400 (Melee) 270 (Magic) 270 (Ranged)
Combat: 597
Hitpoints: 2550
Can cast Protect from melee.

She is very hard to kill.

To kill her, you must be holding Darkened Dagger. Activate protect from melee as soon as you engage fight. This is the suggested inventory.

Prayer Potion(4) x1
Shark x20
Super Strength(4) x2
Any other fighting stuff x4
Teleport x1

*NOTE THAT THE QUEEN IS IN LEVEL 25 WILDERNESS, SO YOU WILL HAVE TO GO SOUTH UNTIL YOU CAN TELEPORT.

Approach her and start attacking. Make sure protect from melee is on. She has three different attacks, Melee, Ranged, And Magic.

For Melee, She hits you with her pinchers, doing a max hit of 40. This will also poison.
For Ranged, She shoots some very fast black darts, for a max hit of 27.
For Magic, She shoots a more powerful form of a Revenant spell, for a max hit of 27.

She will alternate randomly on the three different attacks.

When her health falls below 50, she goes on a rampage and goes 25% faster.

When she is killed, she will drop "Revanant Essence"
Also after the fight, Darkened Dagger returns to Keris, or poisoned Keris if it was before.
Pick it up, as it is required, and go back to Veia.

Player: I've slain the beast.
Veia: How can I trust you?

You hand her the essence.

Veia: You've done well, (Player)

I like your idea of a new spellbook and quest. Perhaps you should suggest it to Jagex and see what they think. It would certainly spruce up the game.

[superfan21]

I really like the idea of the spellbook from revenants. Doesn't seem to be overpowered, altough some are (Like submission, hitting 24 on lvl 54 seems a bit high in my eyes) and dragonbreath) How do the spells look like? Just like those from the revs? I really like it!

Nothing in the game is or should be a sure thing; did you mean always does either 12 or zero?

He clearly says it always does 12 damage

[Frenzy]

How about expanding up, and making spells for 95+. If your hitting 36's at 77 magic, that is just pointless, seeing that Barrage is 94 and hits 30s

[Takedown Jr]

I like the idea man. I think it'd be cool if you thought of a quest as well to go with it.

You know the dark bow special always hits. With dragon arrows it's minimum 8-8 (16)
So with both of those, you would be guaranteed to kill your opponent if they have 12 or less health.

Anyway, I like most of these spells, but for your spells that decrease/increase something for a certain amount of time, I think they should last longer. I don't many would use Debilitation if it's only 20 seconds, maybe increase it to a minute or something.

#coughdarkbowspecalwaysdoes8+damagecough*

I love this book. Not overpowered at all, as melee can hit way higher with the same levels. It lacks enough teleporting spells, and as it is based on ghosts, It seams that it should have more weakening spells. Anyway, I have a suggestion for book. How about instead of a quest you need to do a miniquest every time you want to get book back that makes you kill like 5 revs? (You should change back whenever you wanted by talking to Mandrith, one of the mysterious ghost that give you ghostly robes, Janecca, or some other new ghost.

[IloveDrewxcorez]

I really like this idea, you've spaced the level requirements out nicely and none of the spells seem too over the top.
But, if these spells are the ones that revenants use today, maybe you should add in a teleblock spell and a freezing spell.

Levus's Spark

What does blind do?

Could I ask how many people really would use this spell at level 85 when blitz both freezes and can hit up to 26 at only level 82 Magic? Other than that, the other spells are quite good but I don't think we're in need of new spells in RS atm, mages needs better armour, that's what we need atm imo

You never know, if they were on this spellbook they wouldn't have the option of blitz etc. A spell like this could be useful for other reasons.

It will be hard for mages to have better armour as that would unbalance the combat system significantly. Mages have the ability to freeze and deal large damage at the cost of being vunerable to physical attacks.

I agree that Magic needs some new spells or equipment though and something this would be ideal.

That spell would be good for a mass corp beast trip (if everybody was to use it maybe).

Blood Diamond guy from DT - Always hits 5 damage. No matter what. (unless using Melee)

Dark bow Spec (dragon arrows) 8/8 no matter what

I'm quite certain there are others

[Grincas]

I really like your new idea, the spells aren't overpowered and make sence, now you just need to work on a quest, which would give access to this new spell book. Good luck with it, as it's really worth to becoming a reality in Runescape in my opinion.

[Demeter]

I Finished the spellbook and added the Quest.

I'll finish it up on more information on energy runes and where the alter is and levels, etc.

[Xiaogege]

Hmm, I really, really like this suggestion! I love the names you made for the spells, and everything makes sense. Maybe adopt the max hits/xp to the existing spell books and your spells will be great!

The quest gives a good idea of what it would be like, too; even though there are a few places that need improvement. Of course, Jagex would probably add their little bits of humor, add some item fetching here and there, and the option to stop whatever your doing (I noticed there is no option to decline the starting of the quest ), so it doesn't matter too much. You should definitely improve on this idea and suggest it on some other fansites and the RSOF forums too! I'm sure Jagex will give it a chance!

You worked out everything good =] Although I have to agree that some spells are overpowered...but you already knew that.

Good luck and keep doing this :D

Alex~

[Demeter]

Ok I fixed a few of the overpowered skills, please comment further

[Mike]

I have to say, those spells are incredibly well balanced. It's a very fair, very effective PK spellbook. However, you may want to explain what you mean by "blinding" the opponent. Just as well, you may want to lower the stat reductions on certain spells or lower the time they last. Losing 50% of your defense for 30 seconds seems a bit too much. Even for 15 seconds that is quite a reduction. Play around with the stat reducers. You'll find a balance.
