Love to see people discussing my lovely little Illujanka, I'd love to do more with these guys... you know... while we can.
And I love discussing about them, definitely one of if not my favourite race on RuneScape, there's so much I want to learn about them.
And awesome to see some detail on the size of Ilujanka, even if subsceptible to change later.
Or... perhaps... there's something different at work here.
= Raven =
Perhaps the greater Anima on Gielinor allowed Vindicta to grow to the size she did. I do recall Raven above mere here hinting at the fact the anima allowed for Vindicta to be born in the first place.
If Gielinor's Anima is a main factor towards what happened with the Gielinoran Ilujanka then could it be possible that Iaia's Anima is dying out?
At the very least if this is the issue, Ilujanka could create settlements on Gielinor alike the Goebies have in the Southeast Kharidian Desert, but then there's their Olun'dai beliefs, that could be a main deterrent to them leaving.
I can't really think of a way to restore a whole planets Anima. Unless Zaros goes through with the whole Elder God thing.

Do you really think you can save them, Zevrant Bapt? You can't. The Olun'dai leads only to the eternal crushing shadow. And this is Xau-Tak.

Xau-Tak can go eat a cabbage.
Xau-Tak was active on Gielinor during the time of the Zarosian Empire, which is also the time the Ilujanka were experiencing the infertility problems.
So unless Xau-Tak is all world-hopping I doubt he has any relevance to Iaia.

You think your insignificant verbal taunts even register as sound to a being such as Xau-Tak?
Also what suggests he was active during the Zarosian empire? Has he ever been to Gielinor? He's sending us an ambassador after all, this suggests first contact.

Well maybe 'Active on' was probably the wrong word, activities that were caused by him happened according to Sliske's Death at Sea, which took place during the Zarosian Empire.
Though V does describe worlds conquered by Xau-Tak as 'corpse oceans.'
While they are dying out, the Ilujanka haven't all just died out in a short time, it's been thousands of years and they're still around. I'd have thought that if Xau-Tak had something to do with them they'd not have been around this long.
Besides, it seems that the Ilujanka's problem is more being unable to bring life rather than something bringing death.

This may or may not be canon as it is only something I thought up for my Archipelago war RP. But what if an ilujanka gets submerged in sacred lava and becomes a TokHaar equivalent?

Got me reading up about the Elder Kiln there, "Anything that falls into the the sacred lava is resurrected as TokHaar."
But as we've seen, every TokHaar is fiercely loyal to the Kiln, and I assume that any that abandon the kiln are no longer TokHaar, ie, Tzhaar.
If an Ilujanka did fall in and it became a TokHaar, it would either be resurrected completely loyal to the Kiln, or if it was not loyal, it would no longer be a TokHaar.
Either way, anything that falls into that kiln when resurrected will no longer be of the race it was before unless it was originally a TokHaar.

This gave me scope to make my character a TokHaar ilujanka who rides a lava dragon that can turn into a liquid state. But as for being loyal to the Kiln, I have an idea for an interesting story for this, thanks for the idea.
The RP itself is partly lore based and part theories, with some bits made up. Feel free to check it out if you're interested.

Something else came to mind. Of the five ilujanka who survived in Gielinor to the Third Age, the two who went with Zamorak were female. The other two males excluding Hannibus stayed with Zaros.
It's been shown that Morvannon, a female, laid an egg with Hannibus, neither of whom sided with Zaros. Is it possible that Balustan and Ablenkian were the most patient of the bunch, while the ladies were getting desperate and tried turning to Zamorak for another solution?
EDIT: It may be possible that the Zamorakians offered to give the ilujanka new mates. Hybridding attempts perhaps?

Had a look at that RP your posted, seems interesting, though I'm not really one to take part in them so I'm fine just watching how it goes.
It's possible that as speculated earlier that the 'childbearing age' refers to only females and that the females were more under pressure from aging than the males were.
Enough to push them to accept help from anywhere else.
Perhaps Hannibus, seeing the way things were going for either side chose to not follow either.
I feel that Zamorak persuaded them by bringing up how Zaros still hadn't cured them and using that to gain an advantage against Zaros without actually having any intent on helping them. After all, he was just a Mahjarrat at this point and we've seen how devious some of those can be.
