RuneScape has a lot of lore to it. However, a lot of the lore drops tend to be very serious in tone, dealing with gods, wars, political and religious clashes, and people from the past who had terrible things happen to them.
But every now and then, the lore has some wonderful comic relief, and possible laugh out loud moments. (I'm speaking of intentional comedy here, not unintentional).
For example, the hilariously brutal reviews of the Senntisten Actors Guild by the critic in the 'Night Theatre' journal series in the Senntisten dig site. Cassandra Stropp and her fellow performers are mercilessly mocked by the critic in the first two journal entries.
And then there's the meeting with Sir Vey Lance in Azzanadra's Quest, where we find out the reason for all the punny names of White Knights and Temple Knights and such around Asgarnia. Who would have guessed all these years that those names came about because of a bored undercover Zarosian demon spy inserting puns into Asgarnian lineages because he has a weird sense of humor?
Anyway, if anyone else has picks for their favorite funny bits of lore (intentional comedy only), feel free to reply.
