Sir Denton

Denton is the knight running the tavern of Serpent's Hold in Ultima VII. A man always wearing his armour and with problems expressing himself.

When meeting him in his tavern, Denton first recognised Dupre and asked, if his book was making progress. When asked about Serpent's Hold itself, Denton comically only was abole to tell its coordinates. However, he knew a lot about the other inhabitants.

Lady Jehanne had tried to improve Denton's sense of humor, however, the first joke was already so old, that even Spark commented that humor wasn't Denton's specialty. Of the others, he was especially fond of Lady Tory, who helped him to become more open-minded, and Sir Hoffre, whose story he told the Avatar. He also revealed that Sir Richter was helping him to learn gambling.

Finally when asked for help in the case of the vanadlized statue, Denton felt that the Avatar should first talk to Sir Richter, since he had something.

Of course he also ran the tavern and offered food and drinks for sale.

Trivia

 * Of course Denton is a character for Star Trek TNG, like many others in the fortress. In this case it is Data, whose mannerisms and social ineractions are mirrored in Denton.
