Fairly minor:

Troll Series (is it one?)

* Growing tension between Burthorpe and Falador, as the White Knights threaten to cut funding if the Trolls are not dealt with. -
I have noticed your kind does tend to blindly stumble forward towards danger simply because it exists. What is your word for that?
- We call it being a hero.

#1 - The Elemental Workshop
The story is completely unfinished

#2 - Daemonheim
While yes, a number of questions such as what the rift was, what Bilrach was up to, what the Strange Power was, and etc was resolved, we were still left with a few holes
- Floor 61 in general
- Who saved Thok and Marm

#3 - Sea Slug Series
I'm sorry, but the writing in Salt in the Wound was so bad, there are even more plot holes big enough for an Elder God to casually walk through and still miss the plot
IF that is the canonical end, then do something to wrap up how WTF everyone figured out what we needed to do.

#4 - Thieve's Guild Capers
Yes, Ka-ra-si-une is quite right. We were promised another caper

#5 - Olaf's Quest
Olaf had talked about another treasure map.
While it might be interesting to follow up ... if a full quest is out of the question, how about a Special 1-off Ports Voyage?

ELEMENTAL WORKSHOP SERIES.

Oh my god, please. I saw it teased on a poll and Menaphos won over, but please, can we see what's behind those doors? Can we get more lore on what happened to the Assistant? I love that questline with all my heart. And also..

..What about more Temple Knight quests? Access to more armor? When you trade with Sir Tiffy he says "I can only sell you up to Proselyte, I'm afraid." That heavily implies more Temple Knight quests in the making but they've been in the making for a billion years.

Since White Knights are being mentioned, why not throw in a few quests that give us access to the different armor ranks, and off-hand weaponry too? We've seen the spears, off-handers, etc. Why can't we have 'em? C'moooon. They're so pretty! The Sicarius |
They think they are "the many", and I "the few". They think this gives them the right to walk over me.

Elemental Workshop
*Where did the elemental metal come from? Is it a result of the Stone of Jas?
*What are the (narrative, not gameplay) benefits of imbuing the magical metal with different energies? As in, does mind metal increase telepathic ability, does body metal increase physical strength... etc?
*Relationship and interaction between magic and metal (not just elemental metal), since apparently metal conducts magical energy or attracts it like a magnet or something??
*Is the workshop more open to the public again now that we discovered it? Are people making weapons with the metal like before?

Gnomes
*Illusion magic. Is Glouphrie self-taught, did he modify the light magic of the elves to create his spells? The only other illusionist we know of is Trindine the Mahjarrat, and I'm pretty sure she didn't teach him.
*Why hasn't an entity of the anima mundi (Vorago, Telos, sea creatures) spawned due to the corruption of the world soul from the poison wastes? That'd be a cool boss fight for a gnome quest, honestly.
*Show us Arposandra!

Camelot
I know, I know, we don't talk about this place, but you COULD do something with it. You could make it fit the RS story, doesn't even have to be an Arthurian ripoff -- I don't know, just do SOMETHING with it! Technically, it's an unfinished storyline, since we never did anything about Morgan Le Faye and she's still out there, on the loose.

One Piercing Note
There are literally ripper demons beneath the Abbey now, not some false murderer. And they're the spawn of THE Ripper, who their murderer posed as. And they're always capable of turning more victims. I think there might be some problems there. A curious person could walk in, get a piece of ripper flesh attached to them unknowingly, and waltz on over to the Abbey and infect EVERYONE by accident. Something, ANYTHING, has to be done with that. They can't just ignore it, right? Mods pls notice me

http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_quest_series Using this as a reference...

Gnomes
*What's going on with Glough and the monkeys? (I suggest your own take on Monkey Madness 2. Similar general idea of finishing off Glough's machinations.)

*What are the gnomes planning on doing in Arposandra? They've got this big factory churning out mutants and polluting an entire ocean. Yet they seem intent on mending things with the elves? To what end?

Desert
*(not 5th age but clawing at me) Is Jabari still alive? The cutscene is vague but the quest log is damning. I like that guy.

Pirates
We've currently confirmed in the questline that the pirates are using the black stones to reanimate the dead. But...
*where's their leader?

*Where did the black stones come from?

*Where's this all headed?

*Will the fact I've been wearing this black mask I stole from a strange mutated tribesman looking "cave horror" beast have a negative effect on my sanity?

*Some even claim Xau-tak is involved? That there's this ancient temple?

*AND WHAT WAS IN THE PIRATE'S BOX WHEN HE JUMPED OVERBOARD?

Temple Knights

*The hell was ever going on with Kennith?! He seemed hella evil, then suddenly aged?

*the slug queen was not acting...herself and many claim she was too easily beaten ("the pillar" incident). Did this quest even happen? We're dealing with mind-controlling slugs, anything is possible. I say we only saw what we wanted to see.

White Knights

*the whole Vallance thing mentioned on page 1. We never really saw Burthorpe's prince either. I legitimately can't even tell anymore whether all that's been retconned, but it was interesting how the white knights were spying on them and their whole schism between those two towns. Or all that stuff about the sword and the history of the black knights. Might be workable into the Owen questline. Headcanon Haven, where everything is made up and the points don't matter.
