Black key Crimson is a key and reward from the Shades of Mort'ton minigame. To obtain it, the player must kill either a riyl shade or an asyn shade and then burn its remains on a pyre. This is the best type of key players can get as a reward from a riyl shade. 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 crimson lock. This type of key can only open doors up to black within the tombs.
^The drop rate of black locks are increased when wearing a ring of wealth.
Splitbark scrolls
There is a 1/184 (1/182 if wearing a ring of wealth) chance of rolling the splitbark scrolls drop table, if the previous tables are not reached. The tree wizards' journal and bloody notes will be given out only if the player has not received the books.
^There is a 1/2 chance of getting a Flamtaer bag if players do not own one.
^The chest will always give either a Flamtaer bag or swamp paste.
