'''Skippy''' is found behind [[Betty]]'s house in [[Rimmington]]. He is drunk and you need to sober him up, before he will tell you about the [[Mogre]]s. If you try to slay Mogres before doing the [[Mogre miniquest|miniquest]], you will not be able to. Before you do that, he throws bottles at the sea and yells threats to apparently no one.<br />
<br />
To sober Skippy up, you first need to use a [[bucket of water]] on him, then he will mention wanting some [[nettle tea]]. To make this, use some [[nettle]]s with a [[Bowl of water]], then heat it on a range to make [[Nettle tea]]. He will also need a [[Hangover cure]] (made by mixing [[chocolate dust]] with a [[bucket of milk]] to get [[chocolatey milk]], then mixing it with [[snape grass]]) before he can explain about the Mogres.<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Skippy often says "The Horror...The Horror..." which is undoubtedly a reference to the line in [[Wikipedia: Joseph Conrad|Joseph Conrad's]] book [[wikipedia:Heart of Darkness|Heart of Darkness]] and the film based on it [[wikipedia:Apocalypse Now|Apocalypse Now]].<br />
* Skippy also frequently says "Mudskippers. Thousands of them!" This is most likely a spoof of the famous [[wikipedia:List of misquotations|misquotation]] often attributed to [[wikipedia:Michael Caine|Michael Caine's]] character from the film [[wikipedia:Zulu (film)|Zulu.]]<br />
* If you take the [[Forlorn boot]] from [[Mudskipper Point]] and use it on Skippy, he will say: "Thanks, now I have two right boots!"<br />
* Sometimes Skippy will say "They're coming out of the walls!" which is most likely a reference to [[wikipedia: Aliens (film)|Aliens]].<br />
*Skippy has a combat level of 48 despite being unattackable.</div>imported>Atheist723
