Lothar

Lothar had once been a great swordsman, until he fell under the power of the liche Khelereth, turning him into an undead, bound to the sword Gringolet.

The Avatar found him at the elevator of Covetous in Ultima IX. Lothar was unhappy with his existence and told the Avatar much about Khelereth, and of the liche's new favourite. The Avatar then had to defeat him with the Gringolet in order to descend deeper into Covetous. Later, Lothar was freed from his bonds to the liche who had forged him into the sword, when the Avatar sacrificed it in order to access Khelereth's domain.
