'''Surok Magis''' is the head of the [[Dagon'hai]] order. He has been currently attempting to gain control of [[Varrock]], a plot that is exposed and thwarted during the [[What Lies Below]] [[quest]]. Surok is an older wizard, although his power should not be underestimated, as he is capable of using very powerful magic and summoning fearsome and incredibly strong creatures. He has a rather short fuse and quickly gets angry at people. At times, he is overconfident of himself and when his plans fail anyway he wants vengeance, like the stereotypical villain. He is a loyal follower of [[Zamorak]].

== History ==
Surok Magis is quite possibly the successor of his father, [[Sin'keth Magis]], who led the [[Dagon'hai]] after the discovery of the [[Tunnel of Chaos]] and exile from [[Varrock]].

Surok eventually returned to the Tunnel of Chaos years later with his followers after almost all knowledge of their organisation faded. He then turned his attention to the plan that had been foiled years earlier at the discovery of the tunnel which was to create a reincarnation of Zamorak's will.

He came to the [[Varrock]] library where he met [[Rat Burgiss]], the leader of the [[Varrock Palace Secret Guard]] (Surok was unaware of this fact at the time). He sends an adventurer to give a [[Letter to Surok]]. After destroying it, he uses the adventurer to gain materials required for the ceremony.

==Quests==
===What Lies Below===
{{main|What Lies Below}}

Surok gives an adventurer [[Sin'keth's diary]] and a [[wand]] and sends him/her to infuse it at the [[Chaos altar]]. After giving the [[Infused wand]] to Surok, Rat reveals that he is a member of the Palace Guard, and that Surok is actually trying to take over [[Misthalin]] in order to fulfil the will of his deceased father.

The adventurer asks help from [[Zaff]] (another member of the Palace Guard), who gives him/her the [[Beacon Ring]] to take down Surok.

Using the Infused wand, Surok takes control of [[King Roald]]'s mind and orders him to kill the adventurer. When the king is almost dying, the adventurer activates the [[Beacon Ring]] to bring Zaff to the library, where Zaff uses a spell to counter Surok's mind control spell, disabling Surok's magic and imprisoning him in the library.

===The Hunt for Surok (miniquest)===
{{main|Chaos Tunnels: The Hunt for Surok}}
In this miniquest, Surok somehow escapes his imprisonment in the Varrock Library and flees to the [[Tunnel of Chaos]] where he is confronted by an adventurer. In a desperate attempt to escape, Surok uses a portal to flee into the [[Chaos Tunnels]] where the majority of the [[Dagon'hai]] organisation resides. He is chased down by the adventurer, and ultimately summons a tremendous [[ork]] called [[Bork]] to kill the adventurer. Upon seeing Bork being defeated, he teleports to an unknown location.

===While Guthix Sleeps===
{{main|While Guthix Sleeps}}

Surok Magis is a minor antagonist during the While Guthix Sleeps quest, having allied himself and the Dagon'Hai with [[Lucien]]. Surok Magis is revealed to be the long-debated [[Dark Squall]] character. During the quest, an adventurer spies on him and obtains his clothes (the [[Dagon'hai robes]]), which he/she uses to impersonate him, but ultimately fails leading the player to a disastrous encounter with [[Lucien]]. Surok is ultimately captured by the end of the quest and is currently imprisoned in the [[White Knights' Castle]].

==Quotes==
[[File:Hunt for Surok wolves.png|thumb|Surok is capable of summoning [[Big wolf|dangerous creatures]].]]
[[File:Surok in jail.png|thumb|Surok - incarcerated in Falador.]]
*Response to reading the letter from [[Rat Burgiss]]:
:''Of all the luck!''
*Before unleashing [[King Roald]] upon the player:
:''Do you really wish to die so readily? Are you prepared to face your death?''
*When being arrested by the VPSG:
:''I am Surok Magis, descendant of the High Elder Sin'Keth Magis, rightful heir of the Dagon'hai Order!''

*Chant uttered to control King Roald:
:''Annoch Narh Hin Dei!''
*Verse used to summon an attack spell at [[Zaff]] in his attempt to escape:
:''Mirra din naamus!!''
*Upon being attacked by two [[Fire giants]] in the [[Chaos Tunnels]]:
:''These petty distractions are an annoyance. Feel the power of Zamorak!''

==Trivia==
*Magis is Latin for "more".
*Surok was previously visible to free-players in the [[Varrock Palace]] library, until Jagex removed him from free servers on [[18 August]] [[2009]] ([[Update:Patch Notes (18 August 2009)|Update]]). He was put back on free player servers, though wearing dirty grey wizard robes and hat.
*Even though [[Surok]] is locked up at the end of [[While Guthix Sleeps]], Dark Squall will still appear randomly throughout the Chaos Tunnels after the quest's completion.
*If free players had completed What Lies Below but not started the Hunt for Surok miniquest, they could see Surok near the Saradomin Statue and start the miniquest (but they wouldn't be able to complete the miniquest, because they can't enter the tunnel)
*If free players had completed While Guthix Sleeps, they will still be able to enter Surok's cell to talk to him, despite not being able to talk to the other NPC's in the room.
*Surok is possibly more powerful than [[Solus Dellagar]] since he is capable of hitting 1110s.
*When in normal robes, Surok resembles a grey version of a [[Wizard (Watchtower)|wizard from the Watchtower]].
*When in normal robes, Surok also resembles [[Wikipedia:Gandalf|Gandalf the Grey]], from Peter Jackson's movie adaptation of J.R.R Tolkien's [[Wikipedia:The_Lord_of_the_Rings|The Lord of the Rings]].
