The Isle of Souls is an island located in the Shrouded Ocean, west of Feldip Hills. It is where the Soul Wars minigame takes place.
The island was once the site of a battle during the God Wars; the Armadylean soldiers that were sent there were tasked with securing an unknown artefact,[1] however it was claimed by Bandos, who evidently used it to destroy not only the Armadyleans[2] but his own army as well.[3] This resulted in some of those slain becoming ancient ghosts, unable to move on to the next world.
The island was since abandoned, until Nomad opened it up and started hosting Soul Wars.[4]
Transportation
The isle can be accessed through a few different means:
- Entering the Soul Wars Portal near the Edgeville ruins.
- Entering the Soul Wars Portal inside the Ferox Enclave Dungeon.
- Using the Soul Wars Minigame Teleport.
- Using the fairy ring code BJP to reach the northern coast.
- By mooring on the south-east coast with 55 Sailing.
- Using the rowboat from the Tear of the Soul on the south-east coast.
Dungeon
On the east side of the island is the entrance to the Isle of Souls Dungeon, which houses several types of monsters such as lesser and greater demons, fire giants, and blue, baby blue and iron dragons. Two adamantite and one runite rock may also be found near the dragons, as well as six blue dragon scale spawns. Finally, the dungeon also contains a chest that can be picked open for a variety of loot, including notably the rare dark key, used to open another chest on the north-west side of the island.
Dwarf multicannons can be used in this dungeon.
The Crumbling Tower
In the basement of the Crumbling Tower, the dark chest can be found, which can be opened with a dark key. In the basement, several spiders can be found, and several level 20 forgotten souls haunt each of the higher floors.
Resources
There are several resources spread throughout the island. It should be noted that the only bank and deposit box in the area are found in the Soul Wars Lobby, which is very far away from most of the resources.
- To the south-east, there is a maple grove with 15 maple trees.
- Several yew trees can be found on the isle; 6 are located on the south-west side of the island, and another 4 can be found on the north side.
- Some teak trees and mahogany trees can be found near the north coast of the island.
