Men are citizens of Gielinor found all over the world, usually in towns. From a gameplay perspective, they are very similar to women, the only major differences being their appearance and name. They can be attacked, talked to, and pickpocketed.

Pickpocketing

Men, women, and pompous merchants can be used to start Thieving by pickpocketing them at level 1. After the Lost Her Marbles caper from the Thieves' Guild, a successful pickpocket gives 20 coins.

• There used to be a man located in the Wilderness.
• If you tried to talk to the man in Musa point docks with one of the Ghostly outfits, he'll respond: "A...a...a... ghost! Keep away from me!"
