NPC ID: 3077
Hans is the servant of Duke Horacio[1] and can be found walking in circles around the Lumbridge Castle courtyard. He is the oldest non-player character in RuneScape[2]. He is easily scared, screaming and running away in fright when threatened.[3] He can tell players how old their accounts are or how long they've spent online by talking to him. He is the brother of the flax keeper.
He played a minor role in the 2016 Birthday event, where he witnessed a seagull take a gnome child's hat. He also played a minor role in the 2018 Christmas event, where he was one of the recipients of a gift from Duke Horacio. He is given a chair from the Duke's room, which he takes in relief, having spent many years circling the castle without relief.[4][5]
Hans can also be spoken to by selecting "random contact" on the NPC Contact spell. If Hans is contacted, your character will claim you are a knight coming to kill everyone in Lumbridge Castle. Hans panics in response.
Hans is the solution to the medium anagram clue: SNAH.
