'''Sylas''' is an item collector south of [[Taverley]]. He starts the members' quest [[Grim Tales]]. Sylas often repeats what he says in a way that he is reassuring or talking to himself. He seems quite strange and not aware of the world around him.

When the player talks to him, he claims to have beans that are apparently "magical". The player is not impressed and asks what they do and how much they are. Sylas explains how they must be planted in the ground and watered but he will not accept [[coins]] for the beans, instead he wants a [[griffin feather]] and a [[Dwarven helmet|helmet]] from a [[Dwarf]] named [[Rupert]].

Some items in his collection include the second eye of a mutant two-eyed [[Cyclops]] and a hornless [[Unicorn]]. He is certain his finds are one of a kind. However, it is possible that the items mentioned above were actually from a regular [[Giant]] and a regular [[horse]] respectively (a joke by Jagex referencing the non-existence of horses in RuneScape and the common desire from players for them).

==Trivia==
* Sylas is a Latin name, meaning "of the forest". This is fitting, because Sylas is the one who supplies the player with the magical bean used in the quest.
* Sylas may also be a spin off from the famous fairytale of [[Wikipedia:Jack and the Beanstalk|Jack and the Beanstalk]], hence the magical beans.
* The phrase "Can't talk! Things to collect, magic beans to plant!" may be a reference to the rabbit from [[Wikipedia:Alice in Wonderland|Alice in Wonderland]].
