Katarina (student) is located near one of the winches at the Varrock Dig Site, in the level 2 area. She is a part of The Dig Site quest, where she asks you to find a teddy bear. She is the younger sister of Eliza.

Archaeology

Katarina can be recruited to join a player's research team as a part of the Archaeology skill once the player has completed The Dig Site quest and the assistant qualification; she requires a restored Zarosian training dummy in order to join the team.

Her description in the Team Management interface is "A recent graduate with a burgeoning specialisation in effigies, sculptures and icons."

Pickpocketing

Following the completion of The Dig Site quest, Katarina can be pickpocketed to reobtain the Teddy quest item. The player may only obtain one of the item; if the item is already owned, the player will refuse to pick the student's pockets.
