The Clan vexillum (Plural: vexilla) is an item similar to the previously released Flagstaff of festivities. It can be obtained from the Clan Scribe at the Clan Camp and is the wieldable counterpart to the Clan cloak. Wielding it shows the logo of the clan of which the player is currently a member, and any placed vexillum will display all current clan information when looked at by players.

Stands for the vexillum only exist in the Clan Camp, however they can be placed anywhere in the ground, except inside the Grand Exchange, banks, and in another clan's Citadel. Furthermore, the vexillum can not be placed within 11 squares of another. The vexillum must be wielded in order to place it in the ground. Once placed, the vexillum will still appear in the player's inventory. Clicking wield will retrieve it, as will clicking remove while it is placed. However, the vexillum will still be placed even if it is banked but only until the player is logged off, or about an hour, which is effectively the same as retrieving it. Note that resting while holding the vexillum is not possible. The vexillum may remain in a stand for up to 30 minutes or until the vexillum's owner leaves the area. Only one vexillum for the same clan may be placed somewhere at the same time. Players can obtain an unlimited amount of vexilla.

The vexillum can teleport players to the Clan Camp an unlimited number of times. To do this it must be wielded and right-clicked, which brings up a confirmation screen, and thus is interruptible by combat. This can be used for unlimited free teleports to Falador. However, this teleport will not work beyond level 20 wilderness.

Vexilla can be edited by going to Clan Settings and clicking Motif. Two pictures and the colours can be chosen. Once satisfied, click Done.

The vexillum will be destroyed upon leaving a clan; to re-obtain the vexillum, the player must join a clan again.

The vexillum can tell members of the clan when certain events are occurring after editing notices on the noticeboard in your Clan Citadel.

Trophy vexillum

Tier 7 Vexillum

The Trophy vexillum is a visual upgrade to the standard clan vexillum that, once unlocked, can be activated by an administrator speaking to the Quartermaster. Clan administrators can switch the vexillum style back and forth by speaking to the Quartermaster again.

Trophy vexilla are only available to clans that have reached tier 7 on their Clan Citadel.

Originally, the trophy vexillum was only available to those clans who reached the goal in January 2012, but this was changed on 6 January 2012 to make it available to all clans who reached the tier 7 goal.

Trivia

• There was a glitch where players could not equip the Vexillum using the Equip Item screen or the bank interface. This was patched the day after release.
• If players are reading their own Vexillum and attempt to add themselves, it will say "You've already added (your name) to your friend list."
• Vexillum's attacking styles are just like any spear, which gives shared exp on all attack styles except the defensive one.
• When in the Fist of Guthix lobby, the Vexillum is referred to as "Banner" instead.
• There is a glitch that if players take the cart ride from Keldagrim to another place, their vexillum will be reset to the default look.
• On 26 July 2011, the vexillum was graphically updated so it only showed two separate images that represent that clan and deleting the combined images that were under it.
• Vexillum, literally translated, means "Flag" in Latin.
• After the update on 19 June 2012, all vexes were changed to default colours. Clan cloaks were also affected, and all clan citadels appeared to cease to exist.
