Red Mist

"The sewers were being barricaded off. No one can go in anymore, because of a mysterious red mist that has engulfed the sewers..."

- Fear of the Red Mist

The Red Mist is a hive mind of very tiny carnivorous insects. The Red Mist itself is considered an individual, because all the insects act and think as a large individual. The Red Mist gather in swarms, and literally strip the flesh off a victim. They can also attack in V-Formations. They are also weak to fire.

History
Nothing is known about the creation of the Red Mist, but what is known that they didn't evolve naturally.

The Red Mist had found a home in the Varrock Sewers, where they guarded the Relic of Araz. After the relic was taken, the Mist had discovered the entrance to the surface. (GL: Fear of the Red Mist)

Two months later, the Mist had breeded so much that the city of Varrock was split in two by a wall. On one side lived the people of Varrock, the other belonged to the Mist. Tony de Fillo, Farrell and Darako were dispatched to combat the mist. (GL: The Fortified Sky)

Later on, Tony left to find Sharkros, leaving Farrell and Darako. They were successful in destroying half the Mist, by using explosive potions and fire as their weapons. After two explosions, the Mist had retreated, at the cost of Darako's life and mortal injuries to Farrell. (GL: Crusade Against the Red Mist)

All of Varrock had been since evacuated to Falador and other populated cities, with only the King and his advisors staying behind. The Red Mist managed to bring down the wall, with the King safe underground. (GL: Friends Reunited)

After some time, the Red Mist were able to find a way to escape Varrock, and they headed west. They ravaged Barbarian Village, and are in the direction of Falador. (GL: The Oceanic Empire)

The Red Mist finally reached Falador, and were under the control of Sharkros. They surrounded the city, so no one could escape or get in alive. Tony, Tarqinder and Mark Theobald managed to enter the city by destroying a portion of the swarm using fire. The Mist was later destroyed by the energies of the Relic and the Ark of Eternal Damnation. (GL: The End of Days)
