Penguin

Penguins (Spheniscidae callidus) are a race of intelligent flightless aquatic birds found in the northern regions of Gielinor. They originate from the Motherland, its capital being Palingrad.

Penguins are intelligent, and most appear to be members of the cunning and militant organisation known as the Killer Gentoo Penguins, or KGP, led by The Pescallion. One of his sons, Pescaling Pax, rules the KGP Headquarters in the Iceberg. Their goal is to destroy all humans and take over Gielinor. They are incredibly adept at technology, and they have created advanced infrastructures and a number of disguises like the "Thing" found in Fred the Farmer's sheep pen.

Penguins are the central focus of the Cold War quest. During said quest, players meet Larry, a zookeeper at the Ardougne Zoo who, after years of observing the penguins, suspects that they are evil. The player helps Larry study the penguins and infiltrate the Killer Gentoo Penguins headquarters on the Iceberg and uncover their intent to invade the world. The player narrowly escapes with their life.
