A '''Town crier''' is an [[Non-player character|NPC]] found in several areas across RuneScape. They talk about [[Player moderator]]s, [[Rules Guide|Rules of Conduct]] and also give good tips. The town criers were added in [[Update:Game Improvements (July 2007)|the updates of 17 July 2007]]<ref>[http://news.runescape.com/newsitem.ws?id=868 RuneScape Game Improvements, 17 July 2007]</ref>.

According to the [[Varrock Census]] in the library, the name of the Varrock town crier is '''Gryff Aldock'''.

Players can know they are near one if they have sound on by the bell ring they make.

When a player moderator in-game talks to a town crier, they have access to a few more questions to ask him. These are likely to be player moderator-related questions.

The Town crier in [[East Ardougne]] is one of the NPCs you can start the [[Ardougne Tasks]] by talking to, and will give you the [[Ardougne cloak 2]] as a reward for completing the medium tasks. If you lose the cloak, you can talk to him for another.

== Locations ==
*[[East Ardougne]] - in the market - this one can be helpful to players stealing [[cake]]s from the baker in Ardougne as he gets in the way of the guards and keeps the player safe.
*[[Draynor Village]] - in the market
*[[Falador]] - near the west bank
*[[Varrock]] - near the east bank, and next to the dummy place, and the park (called Gryff Aldock, according to the Varrock Census of 160)
*[[Seers' Village]] - near the bank

== Trivia ==
*The Town Crier also seems to be one of the few NPCs who is aware that ''[[RuneScape]]'' is a "computer game," as he says "...go to the website for more information." This is an example of a character "breaking the [[fourth wall]]".
*When asked about player moderators, and then how to become one, the crier's final suggestion is "Be excellent to each other!" This is a reference to ''[[Wikipedia:Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure|Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure]]'' and ''[[Wikipedia:Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey|Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey]]''.
*The town crier in falador once used to rant about squirrels in his head when asked a certain question, the squirrel card was random in nature. No other town criers were affected.
