Corpse mages can be found in the tenth room of the Lumbridge Catacombs which can only be entered after completing The Blood Pact quest. They were created by Dragith Nurn, a now undead necromancer, during his experiments with local stolen corpses.

This is one of the monsters that drop Mask part 4, which can be used with the 4 other parts to create the Mask of Dragith Nurn.

Some low level rangers may find this place ideal to train in, due to the fact that they drop bronze arrows and have somewhat good drops (talismans, enchanted amulets and runes).
