Soul wars is a twenty minute game much evocative of the age old activity, Castle Wars. The game consists of a form of "King of the Hill", followed by the killing of a very high levelled monster. At the end of the twenty minutes, the team which has the most boss kills is declared victorious. Players may choose to aid the Avatar of Destruction (red) or the Avatar of Creation (blue), while those who enter the green portal will be sorted into either team in order to ensure that the teams are of equal size. Dozens of players may join each side, making this a conquest on large scales. Players may use explosives, place barricades, and heal their teammates with bandages. This is a very large battle; you can be attacked by several players at once, or conversely, your team can team up on one enemy! This is a safe activity, so you will lose nothing but your pride should you die.

Zeal points are the reward for playing Soul Wars. For a victory you will receive 3 points, while you will gain 2 points for a tie, with a single point as a reward for losing.

These can be traded to Nomad for one of three types of reward:

• Experience can be bought in attack, strength, defence, Constitution, ranged, magic, prayer, or slayer. The amount of experience depends on your level in the skill.
  
  
  
• Charms of all types can be bought, depending on your skills. 
• 
• You can purchase a slayer pet, made from a trophy reward from that monster that you must supply to Nomad. These are creeping hand, minitrice, baby basilisk, baby kurask, and abyssal minion. 

• 

• Finally, you can gamble your points for a random reward out of a wide range of possibles, seen below.
