Buccaneer's Den

Description
Buccaneer's Den is the name of a island and the town on the island in the middle of the ocean, west of New Magincia. A little east, the small Orney's Island guards the harbour entrance.

Lawful Britannians should avoid this place. While having lost most of its wildness in the recent years, Buccaneer's Den is still a foul place full of pirates and other criminals seeking refuge there. Illegal gambling in the House of Games and prostitution in the House of Baths are commonplace in the town. The dark Buccaneer's Cave gives the shadiest personage refuge, even from the daylight.

Economically, beside illegal items, weapon shops and the Fallen Virgin tavern are found in the town, while the Guild sells the most exotic merchandise.

History
The town of Buccaneer's Den was founded in the time after Ultima III and before Ultima IV. In Ultima IV, it was not on navigation charts, and already was quite a lawless place. It was one of the few places where the Guild of Thieves still had any presence, after being driven out of the mainland. It stayed that way in Ultima V and Ultima VI, with the Guild staying strong on the island. In Ultima VII, Buccaneer's Den became a stronghold of the Fellowship, with many of the illegal activities there, like the House of Games and the Bathes (Brothel) filling their pockets. Their influence remained there, even after their outlawing.

In Ultima IX, Bucaneer's Den was ruled by Samhayne, and it played an important part in the plot.
