Black key purple detail.png

Black key purple is a key and reward from the Shades of Mort'ton minigame. To obtain it, the player must kill a Riyl shade or asyn shade and then burn its remains on a pyre. The key may be used to enter the Shade Catacombs and then open the correctly coloured chest. It will open a black-framed chest with a purple lock. This key can only be used to open up to black doors within the tomb.
