Advanced data
NPC ID								401

Turael is the lowest level Slayer Master, along with his daughter Spria. Turael resides in Burthorpe; the fastest way to reach him is to teleport to Burthorpe Games Room using a games necklace and running east to Turael's house, just south of the general store.

There are no level requirements to receive Slayer tasks from him.

Additionally, Turael is capable of changing your Slayer task from another master into a less difficult one. If the other master has assigned you a task Turael could assign himself, your request will not work. Moreover, he will issue a change only once per task type. Warning: After a task change is processed, your task streak will also be reset to zero.

Because the tasks he assigns are relatively easy, players often use Turael to boost their Slayer reward points. This is accomplished by completing every 50th task with a Slayer master that gives a lot of points per task, such as Konar quo Maten, and using Turael for the rest of the tasks to get to every interval of 50 more quickly. You can do this every 10 tasks instead but this is not recommended due to the amount of unfavourable tasks that can be given, unless you use a different Slayer master (other than Konar).

After being recruited by the player during While Guthix Sleeps, he, along with 5 others, dies in battle against Lucien. He is replaced with Aya.

Trivia

• Turael's name may derive from the word "tutorial", since he is the first Slayer Master, thus serving as a form of tutorial for the Slayer skill.
