Defective skull
From A KoL Wiki
defective skull
This is a talking skull. It's pretty smart, and it uses its powers of deduction to solve mysteries. Just not the ones you were interested in, like "How do I make this thing shut up?"
This thing could probably provide all sorts of useful information. For varying definitions of "useful".
