Canifis, formerly known as Kharyrll, is a small town in Morytania inhabited by werewolves in human form. The town is only accessible to players who have completed the Priest in Peril quest. Canifis is the starting point for the Myreque storyline.

Several teleports bring players into or close to Canifis, listed here with their arrival destination. From closest to farthest:

• Kharyrll Teleport — Hair of the Dog pub next to Canifis Bank.
• Slayer ring — Slayer Tower entrance north of the town.
• Fairy code CKS — just west of Canifis.
• Fenkenstrain teleport — Fenkenstrain's Castle, north-east of the town.
• Salve Graveyard teleport — slightly west of the town.
• Ectophial — Ectofuntus, far east of the town.

Before the God Wars, Canifis was a Zarosian fortress known as Kharyrll. The fortress was destroyed during the God Wars by Zamorakian forces as part of the destruction of the Zarosian Empire.^[1]

In the year 23 of the Fifth Age, a group of werewolves built the village now named Canifis at the place where Kharyrll once stood.^[2] Like all subjects in Morytania, they are forced to pay blood tithes to the vampyres, whether it be through captured humans, or offering one of their own if necessary.^[3]

Several intermediate training spots exist in Canifis:

• A bittercap mushroom patch, the only mushroom patch in the game, is located just west of town.
• The Canifis Rooftop Agility Course, the shortest Agility course in the game, is available to players at level 40 Agility.
• The experiment cave contains great monsters for low-intensity melee training.
• The northern ghoul grounds features 12 ghouls, great for Slayer tasks. The Salve graveyard is just north of the swamp, with another 10 ghouls walking it.
• The Slayer Tower, a multi-level castle with various Slayer monsters, is found north of the town.

If you attack any of the human citizens of Canifis, they turn into level 88 werewolves. If you wield the Wolfbane dagger, you can fight the men and women without them turning into werewolves. The werewolf citizens are Alexis, Boris, Eduard, Galina, Georgy, Imre, Irina, Joseph, Ksenia, Lev, Liliya, Milla, Nikita, Nikolai, Sofiya, Svetlana, Vera, Yadviga, Yuri, and Zoja.
