The '''Strange Old Man '''can be found digging in the [[Barrows]] mounds. During [[The Temple of Senntisten]], he assists the player in recovering the [[Barrows icon|icon]] guarded by the six brothers. He also sent a scroll containing ''The Fall of Six'' to [[Reldo]], found in the Lores and Histories section. Occasionally players will receive a [[Crumbling tome]] when they talk to him. He has recently put spades to the Barrows mounds, which can be helpful for completing the [[Barrows]] activity. <br />

==Trivia==<br />
*After having completed the quest [[Spirit of Summer]], if a player talks to the Strange Old Man whilst wearing [[Jennica's ring]] then they will have a conversation with him, where he laments about [[Jennica]], and begins talking about digging. This leads many to speculate that the Strange Old Man possibly knew Jennica, which, considering that she has been dead for many centuries, led to speculation that he is [[Gargon]]. Another theory is that he is [[Sliske]], as he resides in a place Sliske is known to have created. Additional reasons for this theory are that the Strange Old Man sent [[Reldo]] [[The Fall of Six]], a lore about the [[Barrows brothers]] and [[Sliske]], that he "delves" [[Barrows brothers|the shadows]], and in [[The Temple at Senntisten]] he seems to know [[Azzanadra]], and of course he would, since both of them are [[Mahjarrat]]. It is likely that he is simply a servant of Sliske.<br />
*Before the Barrows update, he used to say random phrases that didn't make any sense when talked to. He still does this if you have a spade in your inventory.<br />
