Wilderness North Volcano

The North Wilderness Volcano, (marked as 'Volcano' on the map) is a small volcanic outcrop in the members-only section of the Wilderness. Nothing is known about it, as it is not involved in any quests, and currently no NPCs mention anything about it. While walking around it, the ground will shake periodically - probably because of heavy volcanic activity. There is a rope bridge that spans the central pool of lava that can be crossed. The amount of skeletons that litter the ground around the volcano suggests that it was in some way involved in the God Wars. Like near the Chaos Temple, balls of fire shoot out of the pools of lava. If one hits a player, it can inflict minor damage.

Revenants are very rarely sighted around the volcano, so it can be a good place to rest while in deep Wilderness. Additionally, the volcano can be used to flee from the powerful Chaos elemental that resides nearby to the west of the Rogues' Castle. Apart from this, the volcano has virtually no use except from being a sinister piece of scenery well suited to the hostile landscape of the Wilderness.

The north-west side of the volcano has a broken ship; however, it has no use other than for scenery. Next to the ship is an extension of the land on which eight squares into level 56 wilderness - the deepest anyone can go.

It is one of the best places to flee from revenants, since when passing through the istmus, the revenant will get stuck and continue its patrolling route, leaving you safe to rest. Rarely a revenant will spawn here, and if will, it will respawn just SE of the bridge. Also take in consideration people will go here to gain EP in Bounty Hunter worlds. However, some PKers know this and sometimes will go here to kill players.

Trivia

 * The ship has a strange characteristic: It is made of metal, yet all ships in Gielinor are made of wood.
 * The bridge at the top of the volcano is strange, since the constant lava splashes would have burnt and destroyed it since it is made of wood.
 * There appears to be a strange cannon on the ship [possibly dwarven].
 * The very large number of skeletons on the volcano, particularly around the ship, seem to indicate that the ship's crew was either thrown from the ship during the crash and subsequently died from their injuries, or else that the crew attempted to flee and was then killed by lava or Revenants.
