Thurvar is an Imcando dwarf and the older brother of Thurgo. He practises the old craft of socketing: carving a slot into a dragon weapon so that it can hold an enchanted slayer gem.

Location

Barbarian Village.

Services

Thurvar will only help players who have bought the Dragon weapon socketing unlock (75 points) from a Slayer master. Until then he sends you away to prove yourself. All of his services need level 10 Slayer.

Service	What he needs	Result
Socket a weapon	A dragon sword, dragon axe or dragon 2-handed sword, 1 gold bar, 3 redberry pies and Thurvar's enchanted hammer	The weapon with an empty socket. You keep the hammer.
Remove an empty socket	The empty socketed weapon, 3 redberry pies and the enchanted hammer	The original weapon
Remove a socketed gem	The gem-socketed weapon, 3 redberry pies, the enchanted hammer and Thurvar's enchanted chisel	The empty socketed weapon and the gem, undamaged

His hammer and chisel were stolen by the goblin thief found just south of the village, who drops both.

Shattering

Forging or removing a socket can destroy the weapon, along with the gold bar and pies. Thurvar warns you and asks for confirmation first. Removing a gem is always safe.
