Rosaline Haines

"I've sacrificed everything for Ptolemos: my faith, my life...my love."

- Rosaline Haines



Rosaline Haines was born to a wealthy merchant family in Varrock. Her parents were oppressive and expected nothing short of what they wanted from her and her younger brother. As she grew older, she got into more and more trouble with them until eventually she ran away from home to join a traveling troupe in spite of them.

She and the troupe traveled the world and put on performances where they could. She grew close to one of the members, but ultimately left him and the troupe altogether after their relationship turned sour. Later, after learning of an emerging neo-Zamorakian order, one that advocated creativity and personal freedom rather than destruction and chaos, Rosaline joined it. She became one of the more prominent and faithful of the order in time.

Years later, when a self-proclaimed emissary of their god approached them, Rosaline eagerly agreed to have him lead the order. She received a vision a few weeks later, which revealed to her the emissary's true nature; that he was a mahjarrat named Ptolemos. She saw his ambitions as well and was immediately captivated by him. She abandoned her faith and willingly served under him for several months, up until her death at the hands of the mahjarrat Azulra. She was later resurrected by Ptolemos so she could continue to serve him.

Rosaline gathered an army for Ptolemos and led them until his apparent death during an incident in an ancient dragonkin site. Devastated, she left and rallied his surviving forces, and then went on to found an order called the Hand of Ptolemos. She led it while also searching for Ptolemos, whom she believed to be alive. Her efforts were for naught.

As her faith in Ptolemos waned, however, he returned. He revealed his presence to her and a few others before taking over leadership of the order. Rosaline resumed her position as the leader of his forces, alongside Lothar aus Ronasil.

During the Battle of Lumbridge, Rosaline was injured and forced to return to the order's base. Once there, she discovered her master's spirit. He informed her of how he had been killed by a dragonkin. Together, they left in order to find the beast and slay it. Along the way, she and her master discovered that Lashual, the dragonkin, was trying to corrupt the Anima Mundi. Rosaline, under Ptolemos' orders, sought out some of the mahjarrat and convinced them to help them destroy the beast before it destroyed the world.

Rosaline witnessed Ptolemos' fall into an energy rift during their struggle against the dragonkin Lashual, but refused to believe he was gone from the world. She began to search for him once more. With the support of Steven Weaver and Alorah Taredi, she succeeded.

Rosaline is currently alive and in Varrock, protecting her master from harm.
