Lord British's Amulet



Lord British's Amulet (sometimes known as the Serpent Amulet) is one of Lord British's Crown Jewels, having the shape of a silver serpent. The Amulet is a very powerful magical item. Its two known powers are the ability to call a blue moongate to Britannia and to shed light into even the blackest darkness.

Lord British found the Amulet on Earth while he was still a youth, and it transported him to Sosaria, where he always kept it with himself. However, when the Shadowlords abducted him before Ultima V he lost the Amulet in the Underworld beneath dungeon Destard. The Avatar found it there, at the graves of the fallen knights of Lord British. The Amulet was the only way the Avatar could cross the darkness around the dungeon Doom. After the Avatar rescued Lord British, the Amulet was returned to its owner (as seen in Lord British's inventory in Ultima VI).

Trivia

 * It is possible in Ultima V to follow Lord British's Journal (comes with the game) to find the Amulet.
 * It is possible to steal the Amulet from Lord British in Ultima VI by using the spell Pickpocket. However, it doesn't have any special use in this game.

Ultima V: Lazarus
In Ultima V: Lazarus, the Amulet can be found after going into the Underworld by climbing down some falls in Spiritwood, following the footsteps of Lord British's ill-fated expedition. Wearing the Amulet will surround the player with a very bright light.
