'''Eski''' is a small pet [[green dragon]] owned by [[Tim]] and [[Crunchy]], typically seen holding or nearby a dice block. They first appeared beneath the table Tim and Crunchy are sitting at in the "Warrior and Skeleton" [[wallpaper]], which also appeared on the cover of ''[[RuneScape- The Official Handbook]]'', although Eski is mostly out of frame on the book. In this appearance, they are depicted holding a dice block and wearing a collar connected to a leash held by Tim.

They subsequently appeared and were named in the [[Transcript:The woeful tale of the bunny ears.|14th issue of]] [[Postbag from the Hedge]]{{CitePostbag|issue=14 |letter=Letter 3|author=Crunchy, Tim and Eski}}, where they are described as sitting under the table drooling on [[Postie Pete]]'s mail bag before Crunchy's left hand falls off, which they then run off with. The postbag also contained a postcard that depicted Eski relaxing at a beach alongside Tim and Crunchy, which was also released as the "Wish You Were Here" wallpaper. In the postcard and wallpaper, Eski was depicted snoozing under a parasol near a sandcastle, with their dice block nearby, and was also redesigned to more closely resemble the current appearance of [[baby dragon]]s.

After a long absence, Eski reappeared in a remastered version of the "Warrior and Skeleton" wallpaper released alongside <i>[[Old School RuneScape]]</i>'s fifth birthday, reverted to their original design and depicted very similarly to how they were in the original, although they are no longer leashed and have shifted to the right. This version has appeared on the ''RuneScape'' website's login screen, and was released as a physical art print with the deluxe edition of the ''{{RSL|RuneScape - The First 20 Years}}'' art book.

During the [[2018 Birthday event]], the [[dunce]] from the [[Surprise Exam]] [[Random events|random event]] was painted green and took the place of Eski in the museum display recreating the "Warrior and Skeleton" wallpaper beneath [[Falador Party Room]].

Eski visually resembles a [[Fairy dragon|Fairy Dragon]], but it is unclear as to whether or not they are one.
