Trivia

• In the original version of Death Plateau featured in the RuneScape 2 beta files, Saba was known as Hermit.
• In one dialect of the Philippines, "saba" means "noise" which relates to Saba because he himself dislikes the noise.
• Additionally, it is Aramaic (and Modern Hebrew) for "grandfather", which may relate to Saba since he is grey-haired.
• A variant of Saba could be seen in the Eastern Lands during the 2014 April Fools event.
