The wilderness sure has changed a lot throughout the history of the game. I know it's supposed to be dead and whatever, yet a lot of creatures still live there including bandits, rouges, and thieves. It's made me wonder how come there has never been a city in the wilderness? I think the concept could lead to something very cool! Perhaps the city itself was started by bandits, thieves, rouges, and followers of Zamorak after the wilderness blew up.

This could lead to some interesting lore and some new awesome quests! I think the Dark Warriors fortress, bandit camp, ruins, and forgotten cementery area could be an awesome place for this city and it could still incorporate all of these places. It makes me think that the people of this city would be very tough and hardened to live in the wilderness!

feel free to post thoughts!

So, expand the bandit camp? Maybe combine it with the dark warrior's fortress?

#

Or maybe expand the rogues' castle towards the north and turn it into a "rogues' walled city"? Maybe name it something that makes it relate to the soundtrack you unlock there (Regal). Or maybe turn it into "the free city of rogue's" that is ruled by a council of the most notorious criminals and is a place where they encourage its citizens to hone their craft (as long as they aren't caught). We could have an activity there (maybe with a reputation system) where we are able to join the council by usurping a seat of one of the current members of your choice through trickery/theft/assassination, since that is what got them their spots as well.

A council of the most notorious criminals? Nah, we need a King of Thieves 😄

Ye or what you said at the top too. Could be lot's of potential here for new and exciting thieving content or related thieving content too.

Yooo, a quest where a bunch of the most notorious criminals fight or go at it in some contest to become the king of thieves and of this city would be epic!!

I could certainly see her being involved for sure. Since the wilderness is Zamorak's doing I could see a bunch of Zamorakians wanting to live there and even treating it as somewhat of a holy place. Especially with his most recent attack. There could even be a huge Zamorak temple or something

I would love to see it but I'm a lot more keen on other 'city' projects (e.g. arposandra).

As much as I'd like to see a new city I don't think the wilderness is the place for it.

The wilderness is meant to be a very hostile place; isolated pockets of inhabitants makes sense, whereas a sprawling metropolis doesnt. Keep in mind the in game cities are much smaller than the cities in the lore
The wilderness is a free to play area, and this city would most likely be p2p locked, which creates continuity issues within free to play
