[...cont]I suppose Jhallan could've been older than Azzy, given how weary and tired of conflict he was. Although even that doesn't mean that he's a first-hand witness of a Muspah sighting, nor that he had lived millennia on Freneskae. The near-constant conflict probably makes the years seem longer. I'm surprised azzy hasnt seen one. I actually think it's more likely that he's lying for whatever reason
for jhallan the 'near-constant conflict' would be pretty hard on him, whereas azzanadra pretty much has a spot reserved at every ritual, seeing how old and powerful he is... so jhallan would get 'weary' long before azzy does
also jhallan doesnt get much respect from people and with mahjarrat age means power means respect... so he's unlikely to be overly old
chaos dwarves are laughably weak (although admittedly physically stronger than humans and a tad insane)
i mean, yes, compare the average chaos dwarf to the average human and the humans will look pretty weak, but chaos dwarves arent overly interested in living peaceful civilian lives... so it's better to compare them to human warriors than to farmer joe Hazeel said :

Isn't Azzy supposedly one of the strongest, oldest Mahjarrat? If his position on the 'leave Freneskae' debate was notable, he may have been one of those veterans who hasn't seen a Muspah.
Strongest? Maybe. Oldest? I'd be shocked. I think he'd be one of the younger upstarts since he seems to have no connection to their culture whatsoever and is quite content with throwing it away. random jmod said he imagined azzy as being one of the first mahjarrat...
I really need to start writing this stuff down so people dont think I made it up

(I know I kind of said I wouldn't continue this debate, but I couldn't resist. It's interesting for some reason.)
- His muspah appearance doesn't really look like the real deal. It just has vaguely the same slug-like shape. I suppose you could argue that's just because of outdated graphics though.
- As for art, we do have at least one Muspah statue, though that was probably made on Gielinor.
- Also, Jhallan's dialogue heavily implies he's never seen one personally:
Yes, I was also taken by surprise by that, if you recall. During my slumber, I must have dreamt of the Muspah: a horrific creature from my people's imagination . It is a mythical being from our folk tales .
EDIT:
- I imagine with Azzanadra it might just be that his crush on Zaros heavily outweighs any respect he has/had for his own culture. Though him being young seems likely.
- I'd be willing to make a compromise and agree that they might have been a threat in very large numbers (assuming they ever were that common), but i do not believe an individual muspah or just a handful would be. -

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.

XD oh, I would too. Guards in runescape are usually only just as strong as they need to be to enforce the law... and rs is for the most part fairly peaceful so that doesn't take much (although... if rune is as awesome as the rs novels make it seem, the lumbridge guards would be far more powerful than they need to be)
compare the chaos dwarves to those random heroes in ardougne and you will be closer to what I was imagining Maiden China said :

you disagreeing and listing reasons we will have to agree to disagree there. I personally feel his personality is often a good fit for a really old mahjarrat
maybe he's old enough to realize the mahj dont really have a culture or history (I do think it's a bit odd how devoted he is to zaros though)
sometimes old means 'stuck in their ways' and sometimes old means 'realizes change is needed'. In this case, I prefer the latter AesirWarrior said :
