The Abyssal orphan is a boss pet that resembles the scions that are encountered during the Abyssal Sire boss fight.

Players have a 5/128 (1/25.6) chance of obtaining the abyssal orphan when they place an unsired on the Font of Consumption behind The Overseer. As an unsired is a 1/100 drop, this effectively makes the chance of an abyssal orphan 1/2,560. When the unsired is placed into the font, if the pet chance is rolled, a message will appear in the chatbox stating The Font appears to have revitalised the Unsired!.

On death, if a player loses their pet (as a follower or in your inventory) it will wander around for 30 seconds before disappearing completely. It can then be reclaimed from Probita in East Ardougne for a reclaim token, which costs 1,000,000 coins.

Trivia

• The pet has the highest drop rate for a one-off pet at 5/128 (1/25.6). This is due to the time it takes to obtain an unsired, whose drop rate is 1/100.
• Dialogue option 2 ("No, I am your father.") is a reference to The Empire Strikes Back where Darth Vader informs Luke that he is in fact his father, followed by Luke dismissing the claim as impossible.
• Because of how the pet is obtained:
  • If the player has joined a clan and Loot broadcasts are enabled when they receive the pet, a non-standard pet notification message will be broadcasted: [player name] feels like [she's/he's] acquired something special: Abyssal orphan
  • It is the only pet that when rolled, remains in the player's inventory rather than trying to follow them.
• The abyssal orphan, alongside the phoenix, tiny tempor and smol heredit, are the only pets to be rolled as a primary drop.
