Kliftin

Kliftin is a retired soldier who runs an armory Jhelom during Ultima VII.

Description
As an old man who had seen his share of battle, Kliftin was able to speak at length regarding his former life as a fighter, and he would explain how his skills suturing wounds as a field medic eventually translated into his current abilities as a tailor. Unlike the majority of Jhelom's populace, Kliftin was forthright in voicing his distaste with the constant dueling the city saw. The old armourer proved sympathetic when informed that Sprellic, the innkeeper, had unwittingly earned himself the wrath of the Library of Scars by mistakenly taking their "honor flag," which was then stolen from him by an impostor claiming to be the Avatar (likely Sullivan, the trickster).

Not wishing Sprellic to die, Kliftin offered to assist in mending the situation by crafting a false honor flag. He claimed that once the Library accepted it, its members would be loathe to admit that they had been duped by a counterfeit should the substitution ever be uncovered. The flag was eventually made and delivered to the fighters, who withdrew their various challenges against Sprellic.

Trivia

 * In Ultima VII the Avatar has several options by which the affair with Sprellic and the Library of Scars can be resolved. It is possible for the hero to kill Syria, Timmons and Vokes in combat as Sprellic's champion, or to simply murder Sprellic before the duel. The creation of the false honor flag, however, is considered the canonical solution, as Ultima Underworld II features Syria and mentions Sprellic as being very much alive.
 * In the  Key to the Black Gate, Kliftin provides Anton with an overview of Jhelom, mentioning the local fervor for dueling and describing the residents of the towne. His insights into the City of Valor would eventually be compiled by the scholar in the hopes that such information might be of use to the Avatar.
