Pia (Return to Canifis)

This article or section contains information only featured in the RuneScape novel Return to Canifis, which is generally considered canon.

Pia is a young thief in the second RuneScape novel Return to Canifis. She originally hails from Ardougne, but left with her younger brother Jack after they become wanted criminals. She was part of a gang of thieves, which also included 2 thieves called Thorn and Ginny. Her motto is "Never a rope."

During Return to Canifis, Pia pretends to be the legendary heroine Kara-Meir as part of a plot with the Phoenix gang to con the civilians of Varrock into giving their money to her, claiming it will be redistributed among the less fortunate. She and Jack attempt to flee the next morning, but get she captured and handed over to a band of outlaws led by Sulla.

Pia, whilst Sulla's prisoner, finds some Wolfbane daggers, and uses one of them to wound Jerrod during her initial escape attempt, which fails. After Jerod and Sulla leave, Pia attempts another escape attempt, but is again quickly overcome. During this attempt, the real Kara-Meir rescues her and kills all but one of her remaining captors. She is reunited with Jack and they travel with Kara, Gar'rth and Arisha to Varrock, where Pia and Jack become Kara's servants in exchange for Kara gaining them pardons for their theft. They flee after being accused of murder by a Kandarin ambassador, and make their way east towards Morytania. They are captured by werewolves outside the town of Canifis, along with Vanstrom Klaus.

After the town is attacked by members of the Myrque resistance group, she, along with Jack and Vanstrom, manage to escape to one of the group's hideouts, where they plan an escape to Misthalin. During this time Pia is implied to develop feelings for Vanstrom.
