Postie Pete is a postman who consists of a skull, a blue RPDT cap, and a satchel he carries around in his mouth. He is RuneScape's only known postman. He delivers all of the Postbag from the Hedge letters to their destinations, and ventures into whatever dangerous places he must to get there - although he can never be seen to do this in-game, preferring instead to pop up around locations within RuneScape. As of 28th March 2011 he has a very small appearance in A Clockwork Syringe, when players try to enter their POH he leaves a note, which players can use to start the quest.
He can speak over 1,000 languages including Wyvern, and usually tells a rather weak joke. According to Baba Yaga, Postie Pete's Crafting level is 1. However, this is debatable as in a letter's response, he completed the Lost City quest, which requires level 31 Crafting. Lanthus also says to Postie Pete that he should say hi to the kids for him, this showing that he must have children.
A Postbag from the Hedge confirmed the existence of two of his brothers, Party Pete and Pirate Pete. Also, while talking to Parrot Pete, he mentions him also being his brother. Postie Pete also has an aunt named Aunt Poyson.

Dialogue
Trivia
- It is possible that he is a spy or a scout for the Imperial Guard of Asgarnia because of the conversation players can have with him while at the Bandit Camp, and the conversation he has with Party Pete: "I'm here to see some white knights." He also mentions a "plan" that is very secretive with Noterazzo in his general store.
- He also mentions Parroty Pete is his brother.
- In "Postbag from the Hedge 19" it is implied that Postie Pete became a skull after being attacked by a dragon.
- Occasionally Postie Pete's "eyebrow" clips into his eyesocket, this is probably due to his eyesockets being black shapes instead of actual holes.
- If you speak to Postie Pete just as he's about to "head off", the message "Postie Pete is talking to someone - Don't you know it's rude to interupt?" appears in your chatbox.
- In "Postbag from the Hedge 40" it is implied by Mother Mallum that she had momentarily took control of Postie Pete's mind, suggesting that he is in some way alive, in order to write a reply to Lilly181's postcard.
- During a conversation with Lanthus at Castle wars Postie Pete mentions that he was cursed by a witch.
- Postie Pete carries his mail satchel in his mouth, but his chathead doesn't show that.
- Occasionally, when Pete appears near you, a little jingle will play.
- He replaced the Internal messaging delivery system of Demonheim by jamming a spanner into the machine that ran it.
- When he appears near Pirate Pete he will be talking like Murray the skull from the Monkey Island game series. Your character 'hints' it by saying "I have a strange feeling of Deja Vu".
