Trenton

Trenton Bell is the mayor of Skara Brae in Ultima VI.

Trenton is a petty, pretentious man who was utterly incompetent in his role as mayor. He seemed to shun all forms of physical labour, and looked down upon those who toiled for gold. Gideon, Stivius, and Yorl all spoke poorly of him. Trenton told the Avatar that Quenton had been in charge of the rune of spirituality, but assumed its location could not be discerned with Quenton's death.

Trenton was more than willing to accept that Gargoyles must have killed Quenton, and could not be bothered to investigate the issue thoroughly. Even though Quenton knew that the Gargoyles usually killed their victims loudly and gracelessly, he did not find it sufficiently odd that nobody heard any noises during Quenton's death.

Trivia

 * Having incompetent leaders seems to be tradition in Skara Brae, since Forsythe of Ultima VII was equally incompetent in the position of mayor.
