The Doomsayer is found wandering around Lumbridge near the Lumbridge Guide prophesying doom to all who speak to him. He has a natural skill at sensing danger, and he feels it is his duty to warn others of the potential hazards that await unsuspecting travellers. He does this by putting up warning signs in dangerous places, accompanied by a warning message. Whilst he calls himself the Doomsayer, he feels that his proper title is Danger Tutor.

These warning signs can be toggled after the seventh time they are seen by the player. A good way to be able to toggle them faster is to click the entrance to where one was going, and click "No" until the toggle appears. After that, the player may switch them on or off as they like.

Speaking to the Doomsayer allows the menu to enable and disable warning messages from a unique interface which shows players the warnings they have enabled, disabled, and have not yet unlocked the ability to toggle. Attempting to toggle a warning where this option has not yet been unlocked gives the message You cannot toggle this warning screen on or off. You need to go to the area it is linked to enough times to have the option to do so.

The Doomsayer's warning message toggle interface.

Certain warnings cannot be re-enabled, such as the Wilderness Lever.

On the permanent Deadman Mode world, new players can speak to the Doomsayer to end their beginner protection period early.
