Fort Forinthry is a player-built fort north of the Jolly Boar Inn in the south-eastern part of the Wilderness. It is the central location of the ongoing Fort Forinthry storyline and will be expanded with subsequent instalments of the story. The fort is built on the area that used to be called Grieving Vale. Despite being surrounded by the Wilderness in the west and north, the dangers of the Wilderness don't apply inside the fort. However, the fort's northern gate opens into the Wilderness.
The New Foundations quest needs to be nearly completed in order to continue constructing the fort. Players are able to establish seven buildings, with more coming in the future. Currently available buildings are the Workshop, Town Hall, Kitchen, Chapel, Command Centre, Guardhouse, Grove, Ranger's Workroom, and Botanist's Workbench. Each building can be upgraded up to tier 3 with the corresponding Construction level, providing various benefits.
The season that players experience within the fort can be changed by talking to Zoe who can be found by the south-western tree outside of the Town Hall.
Free-to-play adventurers who build any portion of Fort Forinthry as members will see the structures they built and can enter the Wilderness through the north gate, but they cannot interact with any of the facilities. If the Town Hall is constructed, rested experience will continue to accumulate but can not be collected until the adventurer renews their membership.
Other players' followers can't be seen while inside the fort.

Constructing[edit | edit source]
Before the player can start work on any of the constructions (with the exception of the tier 1 Workshop), they are required to nearly complete the quest New Foundations. Players can interact with the Fort Forinthry blueprints table at the Workshop to start building a construction in the fort.
Each blueprint has a Construction level requirement, and the player must have built each previous tier before building a higher tier of building for the first time. Boosts can be used to meet Construction level requirements for all the constructions. The boost is only required when starting the blueprints and the full experience will be awarded during the construction phase regardless of level. However, the assist system cannot be used to bypass level requirements for creating blueprints. Constructing a blueprint can be repeated for experience even once the tier of building has been finished with the same process as initial construction, although there are no other benefits to doing so. Only one blueprint may be built at a time, although it is possible to scrap any progress to start on a new blueprint. Scrapping a blueprint does not return any resources.
The process of constructing a building awards a certain amount of Construction experience and requires a certain amount of progress, depending on its tier and level requirement. Higher level buildings require more total progress to complete and award more experience. Despite the total experience being listed when starting the blueprint at the blueprint table, starting the blueprint yields no experience and is completed instantly; it adds Construction hotspots to the selected building's area, with one of them being the shiny optimal hotspot if the building involves multiple hotspots. Interacting with the optimal hotspot while upgrading or reinforcing a building increases progress towards the completion of the construction by 40% compared to the regular hotspot, awards up to 20% more experience, and prevents the Perfect Build status effect from decreasing. The location of the optimal hotspot changes randomly with it typically staying in place for about 30 seconds. Experience and progress is gained continuously in 1.8-second intervals while building at the hotspots.
While upgrading or reinforcing a building, 80% of the experience is given over the course of the construction process at the hotspots. The remaining 20% are awarded on the last building tick in addition to the normal tick experience. The 20% experience at the end of the build is calculated based on the base experience gained from the building, and is increased by the Perfect Build status and boosts from the Workshop.

History[edit | edit source]
The land around Fort Forinthry was a vale in Misthalin territory that was originally known as the Grieving Vale. This land was strategic to the kingdom, as it had seen many battles and was right next to the Wilderness.
At some point Bill got the land from the bank of Varrock and created a Lumber Yard business. Due to the threat of the Zamorakians that fled into the Wilderness in the Sixth Age following the banishment of the gods, the bank reclaimed the land and where King Roald would have a notice for anyone to clear the land, which had since been infested with the undead.
A New Foundation[edit | edit source]
In response to the threat posed by the Zamorakians who had settled within the Wilderness, King Roald of Misthalin announced an opportunity for individuals to reclaim a strategic vale located between Misthalin and Daemonheim. The purpose of this initiative was to establish a protective border for the Saradominist kingdoms and prevent further encroachment by the followers of Zamorak. Those who succeeded in reclaiming the vale would not only be granted prestigious positions within Misthalin's rank of nobility but also gain ownership of the land itself.
While many individuals failed in their attempts to reclaim the vale due to its inherent dangers, the Adventurer rose to the challenge and embarked on the mission. They fearlessly confronted hordes of zombies that infested the area and, in the process, rescued Bill, a valuable ally who joined their cause. Together, they began the arduous task of rebuilding the vale, transforming it into a fortified stronghold.
Through their efforts, the Adventurer recruited individuals such as Father Flint, Aster, and Overseer Siv, each contributing their unique skills and expertise to the project. Working tirelessly, the team successfully restored the vale to its former glory, and upon its completion, they proudly named it Fort Forinthry. In recognition of their remarkable achievement, the Adventurer was bestowed with a title of nobility, cementing their position as a prominent figure within Misthalin's hierarchy.
Royal Banquet[edit | edit source]
After the successful completion of Fort Forinthry, King Roald of Misthalin extended an invitation to the Adventurer, who is the ruler of the fort, to host a grand banquet at the newly fortified stronghold. The purpose of the event was to bring together the nobles and duchies of Misthalin, including the king and queen themselves, in a celebration of the fort's completion and the unity of the realm. The invitation was warmly received, and preparations began in earnest.
The Adventurer, with the help of their allies, oversaw the construction of the banquet kitchen, ensuring that it would be fully equipped to cater to the distinguished guests. The invitations were sent out to King Roald and Queen Ellamaria, along with their wine taster Simon. Duke Hoarse of Edgeville, accompanied by his pet princess and his fiancé Rodney, as well as Iris the Lumbridge ambassador, and Duchess Alba of Lumford.
As the banquet commenced, a brief argument arose at the table, but the Adventurer swiftly changed the topic by regaling the guests with a captivating story recounting their past adventures. The tale left the attendees impressed, and they commended the Duchy for their remarkable achievements. However, the joyous atmosphere was abruptly shattered when Duke Hoarse suddenly began coughing violently and collapsed to the floor, lifeless. It became evident that he had been poisoned, plunging the fort into a state of lockdown until the murderer could be identified and apprehended.
With the assistance of Aster, a trusted ally, the Adventurer diligently gathered clues and evidence to unravel the mystery. During the investigation, an assassin attempted to eliminate the fort's ruler to silence them, but the plot was thwarted. Meanwhile, the murderer manipulated events to open the northern gate, allowing dark beasts to infiltrate the fort. In the ensuing chaos, one of the creatures claimed the life of Simon, the wine taster, but Queen Ellamaria valiantly defended King Roald and vanquished the dark beasts.
The evidence discovered during the investigation pointed to the involvement of Zamorakian agents, with the assassin in possession of a letter from their paid contractor detailing their nefarious instructions. With the accumulating evidence, the Adventurer and their steward were able to expose the identity of the murderer, who was non other than Bianca, Aster's sister, and kitchen cook. Shockingly, it was revealed that the original target of the plot was King Roald himself, as an act of revenge against Queen Ellamaria. The murderer was swiftly apprehended, and justice was served. The revelation of the murderer and the subsequent arrest brought the banquet to an abrupt end. However, amidst the turmoil, a silver lining emerged as it was announced that Duke Hoarse's sister would assume the role of Edgeville's new duchess. Though the celebration had been marred by tragedy, the fort remained a testament to the unity and resilience of Misthalin, and the bonds forged among its people grew even stronger in the face of adversity.
Fortifying the Fort[edit | edit source]
Following the conclusion of the banquet, the Adventurer found themselves visited by the renowned warrior known as the Raptor. The Raptor had observed a growing number of zombies amassing to the north of Fort Forinthry, and together with them, they set out to confront the undead threat. With their combined strength and skill, they successfully defeated the zombies, ensuring the safety of the fort.
Recognising the need for additional protection, Overseer Siv took it upon themselves to recruit guards for the fort. Meanwhile, the Adventurer focused on fortifying the outside walls, bolstering the fort's defences against future attacks. With the newly positioned guards and the fortified fortifications, the duo of adventurers prepared for the inevitable onslaught. Their preparations were soon put to the test as they once again found themselves under attack. This time, however, they faced a formidable opponent in the form of a powerful phantom. Though they fought valiantly, the source of the phantom's origin remained a mystery. Determined to uncover the truth, the Adventurer and the Raptor embarked on an investigation that led them to a crypt located further north.
Venturing into the crypt, they discovered Zemouregal, a cunning Mahjarrat, in the midst of attempting to force open an ancient Dragonkin door. It became clear that Zemouregal was responsible for sending the zombies to the fort as a diversionary tactic, distracting the Adventurer from interfering with their nefarious plan. In a display of their power, Zemouregal summoned several powerful undead beings to engage the Raptor and the Adventurer, forcing them to retreat temporarily.
Recognising the need for additional preparation and strength, the two adventurers vowed to return to the crypt once they were better equipped to face the formidable foes that awaited them.
After the incident, a woodcutter named Oak came, impressed with the World Guardian's appreciation of nature. After fortifying the area, the trees in the area began to recover to the point that even an elder tree became healthy once again, providing the fort with its own supply of lumber.
Into the crypt[edit | edit source]
After successfully dealing with the undead outside Fort Forinthry, the Raptor and the Adventurer were eager to continue their quest into the crypt behind the sealed dragonkin door. However, before they could proceed, they were met with a new challenge: injuries among the guards. To address this issue, Overseer Siv suggested appointing a Captain to take charge of the Fort. After conducting interviews, Sofía was chosen for the role and was given the rank of Captain. She wasted no time in setting up a station for archery training to better prepare the guards for future encounters.
Once the preparations were complete, the two adventurers returned to the Crypt. Their plan was simple: the Raptor would distract the remaining undead while the Adventurer quickly constructed a bridge to facilitate their passage. Within the Crypt, they stumbled upon a mysterious dragonkin device, which they brought to Reldo for further examination. Reldo revealed that the device had the ability to induce deep sleep and cause vivid dreams. However, before Reldo could warn them about its potential dangers, the impulsive Raptor decided to use it to unlock the door and learn its secrets, unintentionally putting them both into a deep slumber.
In their dream state, with the help of the Adventurer, the Raptor began to unravel the dream's mysteries and discovered a shocking revelation - they were, in fact, Queen Ellemaria. This newfound knowledge added a deeper layer to their quest. Undeterred by the revelation, they continued their pursuit of the key to unlocking the dragonkin door. Unfortunately, they soon learned that Zemouregal had already beaten them to it. After thorough investigation, they discovered that Zemouregal headed somewhere within the Lunar Sea.
Thankfully, Overseer Siv came to their aid once again, providing crucial information about their next destination: Ungael, a feared location among the Fremennik. Siv then started preparing a ship to help the adventuring duo search for the island.
Unveiling an ancient threat[edit | edit source]
After their return to the Fort, the Adventurer conferred with Overseer Siv, who revealed ongoing archaeological investigations into the dragonkin lair within the Wilderness Crypt. Upon arrival at the site, they encountered the capable Raptor and the helpful Aster, aiding in the translation of dragonkin artefacts. The Adventurer was tasked with finding a crucial artefact, affirming Zemouregal's journey to Ungael in search of an ancient weapon.
Mobilising the inhabitants of Fort Forinthry and briefing them on the imminent threat posed by Zemouregal and the mysterious weapon, they meticulously planned an expedition. Accompanied by steadfast allies, including the Raptor, Aster, and Bill, the Adventurer guided the party to Ungael. An ambush by Zemouregal's Undead tested their mettle, but the assailants were swiftly subdued. Venturing further into Ungael, they uncovered Zemouregal's attempt to resurrect a colossal undead dragon beneath a shroud of ice. Frustrated by their intervention, Zemouregal summoned more undead to divert the expedition's focus from thwarting his necrotic ritual. Tragically successful, they watched as the undead dragon obliterated their means of escape, leaving them marooned on the island.
Amidst the ensuing panic, the team rallied their composure and sought a way out. Discovering an old laboratory, they activated a device revealing a projection of Zorgoth, the creator of Vorkath, the ancient weapon now controlled by Zemouregal. The projection disclosed a teleportation device that could return them to the mainland. With haste, they activated it, promptly returning to Fort Forinthry to alert and rally its inhabitants.
With this forewarning, the inhabitants stood united with the Adventurer, ready to defend the land they had tirelessly built against the impending threat.
Siege of Fort Forinthry[edit | edit source]
As Fort Forinthry braced itself against the impending Zemouregal invasion, the air echoed with the ominous approach of undead forces led by the Mahjarrat atop his undead dragon. In response, the inhabitants of the fort sought refuge within its sturdy structures, while vigilant guards defended the walls against the relentless onslaught of undead hordes. Meanwhile, the Adventurer and the Raptor, undeterred by the chaos, ventured forth to neutralise Zemouregal's power source – a malevolent font not only summoning the undead but also endowing the Mahjarrat with formidable abilities.
Methodically, the dynamic duo confronted and subdued the Undead Giants safeguarding the power source, disrupting its malevolent influence. With the destruction of all three power sources, the ceaseless tide of undead abated. Seizing an opportunity, Zemouregal unleashed Vorkath's icy power, wreaking havoc on the western side of Fort Forinthry. In a climactic confrontation, the Adventurer and the Raptor engaged Zemouregal, revealing a shocking twist as Vorkath turned against its own master. During the intense battle, Fort Forinthry's guards rallied, launching Ballista attacks against both Vorkath and the Mahjarrat. As the conflict unfolded, Vorkath wrested free from Zemouregal's control, fleeing the battlefield and leaving the Mahjarrat to face the consequences alone. Despite Zemouregal's bold claims of victory, he ultimately succumbed, apprehended by the fort's guards and incarcerated.
As the fort underwent repairs, King Roald and Queen Ellemaria visited, marking the occasion with a celebratory feast. The gathering served not only to commemorate the defence of the fort and the kingdom but also the capture of Zemouregal. Post-feast, the Adventurer decided to confront the imprisoned Mahjarrat. Although Zemouregal's ego initially resisted cooperation, he reluctantly divulged that Moia was involved in mysterious machinations, the details of which remained elusive.
Before departing, the Adventurer fortified the cell's barrier with a necrotic ward, ensuring Zemouregal remained securely confined, leaving the mystery of Moia's intentions lingering in the air.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Fort Forinthry replaced the Lumber Yard that was previously in this approximate location on the map.
- Fort Forinthry is the first full scale area built using purely multilocs, where environment objects have various appearance, names, properties depending on player's progress.[2]
- The Fort Forinthry coat of arms resembles the original texture of the dragon sq shield which depicted a similarly stylised dragon on a red backdrop.
- The keyboard shortcut for Fort Forinthry on the Lodestone Network interface is Alt+W, perhaps a reference to the location's association with the Wilderness.
