- For the music track, see Miscellania (music track).
Miscellania is a small island off the northernmost part of the Fremennik Isles. Once a player has completed the Throne of Miscellania quest, all inhabitants view that player as Prince or Princess Regent of the island of Miscellania, and they work for the player if his or her popularity is high.
While talking to local inhabitants, players will be always referred to by their Fremennik name.
Travel
- The boat to the south of the island leads to a dock in Rellekka. The Sailor shall let you use the boat only if you have completed The Fremennik Trials quest.
- If you have a Miscellania teleport scroll, you can teleport to Miscellania. You teleport right to the square of Miscellania. You can buy Miscellania Teleport scrolls from the grand exchange, or you can get them from clue scrolls. You can use the scrolls upon completion of The Fremennik Trials only.
- If you have 83 Farming and have grown a spirit tree here, you can use it to teleport very near to Etceteria.
- Fairy ring code CIP will teleport players south of the mine on Miscellania. Likewise, the Fairy Code only works on completion of the quest, otherwise the rings treat the code as unrecognized and teleport you just a few spaces from the main ring.
- If the player's Construction is level 30 or higher the player is able to move their house to Rellekka for 10k. They can then simply use house teleport, walk a short distance north, and then sail to Miscellania.
- If the player uses the lodestone network to teleport to Lunar Isle without a Seal of Passage and talks to anyone on Lunar Isle, they will be kicked off and will reappear in Rellekka (if they have not completed the Lunar Diplomacy quest). Then, take the boat to Miscellania at the port.
- Using the enchanted lyre from The Fremennik Trials quest, the player can teleport just south of the entrance to Rellekka, where a short walk can take him or her to the boat to Miscellania.
- Teleporting with the Ring of wealth (Requires completion of Throne of Miscellania.). You will teleport right next to Advisor Grihm, which is useful for those who do Miscellania Management.
Notable features
Managing Miscellania
Managing Miscellania is a repeatable reward from quest Throne of Miscellania in which the player is the regent of the nation Miscellania. The player is in charge of the subjects on the island by assigning them to collect resources. If a high popularity with the citizens is maintained, and a considerable number of coins invested, the subjects will share a portion of their collected resources with the player. Because many of these resources are valuable, this quest reward is considered to be highly profitable.
Market Stalls
In the courtyard of the Miscellanian castle are market areas which include fish and vegetable stalls where you may practice thieving. At level 2 Thieving, you may steal cabbages, garlic, onions, potatoes, or tomatoes from the vegetable stalls. If you have level 42 Thieving you can pilfer raw salmon, tuna or lobster.
If you are caught stealing, you cannot buy anything from the stalls for about 48 hours (instead of the usual 15–30 minutes).
Stealing from the stalls also decreases your approval rating. Although the normal drop in a person's approval rating, if leaving their kingdom unattended, can only decrease to 25% (1% drop per day), stealing may lead to an approval rating of 0%.
Greengrocer store
The Greengrocer of Miscellania sells vegetables for a small price. It can be stolen from with 2 Thieving.
Fishmonger
The Island Fishmonger sells fish for a price. It can be stolen from with 42 Thieving.
Flowers
A flower girl in the Miscellanian market sells coloured flowers for 15 coins each. She sells the red/blue/yellow flower combination; no other colours are available. Flowers are used during the Throne of Miscellania quest.
Patches
There is a flower patch, but this is only used in Kingdom management; players cannot grow crops here, there is also a Spirit Tree patch.
Miscellania Dungeon
Miscellania & Etceteria Dungeon has various shops and can only be entered half-way through Royal Trouble. Here you can buy various items from various shops.
