Castle of the White Dragon

Description
The Castle of the White Dragon once was the seat of power over half of the Serpent Isle. The Stranger visited it in Ultima I, but the king had no quest for him/her. Later the caste got a sad history... The King's daughter Beatrix was Shamino's love, but after he was unable to return to the Lands of Danger and Despair due to the world being thundered apart, Beatrix died of a broken heart shortly after Ultima I. Broken by grief over her death, the King went mad, and in the end murdered everyone in his castle. The reputation of his ghost was so horrible, that the Goblins evaded the Castle at all cost because of pure fear.

In Ultima VII/2, when the Avatar tried to enter the castle, the mad ghost appeared, trying to kill him/her. After a hard battle, the King of the White Dragon was finally released from his neverending madness. After this, the Avatar went through a gauntlet set up by the Banes of Chaos, literally living through madness, before confronting them in the throne room, banishing them into the Black Sword after the battle.

Trivia

 * The King can be met in Ultima I, but thanks to the primitive game mechanics, he had no real dialogue.
 * The stations of his madness and the bloody slaughter can be read in books in his castle. One must be careful because some books are Killer Jokes of the Trixter!
